Promises  of  life  and  love  in  Jesus, 
Records  in  the  word  of  truth  He  told  US, 
Eternal  life  on  earth  to  be, 
For  all  its  families  truth  to  sec; 
A  message  given  to  the  nations  all, 
Correcting  errors  in  false  ideas  fall, 
Eternal  life  revealed  in  heavenly  call. 

Wonder  Poems  records  of  life  and  love — 
Our  Father's  promises  in  truth  above, 
No  more  shall  false  idealist's  lore 
Destroy  the  amity  of  the  earth  with  war; 
Eternal  life  shall  bless  mankind, 
Remove  the  error  thoughts  in  mind. 

People  of  earth  true  life  shall  live, 
One  to  the  other  blessings  give 
Everlasting  peace  and  joy  to  all 
Mankind  redeemed  from  errors  fall, 
Salvation  from  power  of  evil  call. 

One  and  all  the  nations  to  win, 
Freedom  from  false  idea's  sin. 

Life  of  true  ideas  to  bless  creation, 
It  shall  guide  mankind  in  truth's  salvation 
Foster  within  them  power  of  love, 
Enter  into  harmony  of  truth  above. 

A  revelation  with  no  apology  to  those 

Now  of  the  false  idea  who  chose 

Deeds  of  error  thoughts — soon  shall  loose. 

Love  shall  cancel  their  evil  shame, 
Our  Father's  promises  all  shall  claim; 
Vile  nature  to  be  made  divine, 
Eternal  truth  shall  within  them  shine.

Instruction  and  Prayer 

Math.  6:5-13 — And  when  thou  prayest,  thou  shalt  not 
be  as  the  hypocrites  are;  for  they  love  to  pray 
standing  in  the  synagogues  and  in  the  corners  of 
the  streets,  that  they  may  be  seen  of  men.  Verily 
I  say  unto  you,  They  have  their  reward.  But  thou, 
when  thou  prayest,  enter  into  thy  closet,  and  when 
thou  hast  shut  thy  door,  pray  to  thy  Father  which 
is  in  secret;  and  thy  Father  which  seeth  in  secret 
shall  reward  thee  openly.  But  when  ye  pray,  use 
not  vain  repetitions,  as  the  heathen  do:  for  they 
think  that  they  shall  be  heard  for  their  much  speak- 
ing. Be  not  ye  therefore  like  unto  them:  for  your 
Father  knoweth  what  things  ye  have  need  of,  before 
ye  ask  him.  After  this  manner  therefore  pray  ye: 
Our  Father  which  art  in  heaven,  Hallowed  be  thy 
name.  They  kingdom  come.  Thy  will  be  done  in 
earth,  as  it  is  in  heaven.  Give  us  this  day  our 
daily  bread.  And  forgive  us  our  debts,  as  we  for- 
give our  debtors.  And  lead  us  not  into  tempta- 
tion, but  deliver  us  from  evil:  For  thine  is  the 
kingdom,  and  the  power,  and  the  glory,  for  ever. 
Amen. 


"Behold,  I  Make  All  Things 

New" 


Rev.  21:3 


The  present  evil  world  shall  pass  away, 

With  it  goes  the  fruits  of  evil  strife, 
Behold  the  new  has  come  on  earth  to  stay, 

With  glorious  blessings  of  true  life. 

The  old  world — its  evil  can  no  longer  stay, 
Our  Father's  promise  is  to  bless  mankind, 

The  fruits  of  false  ideas  shall  pass  away, 

Man  shall  know  the  truth  of  the  Father's  mind. 

Ecclesias,  with  false  ideas  of  inind 

Shall  know,  the  truth  shall  cancel  power  of  sin, 
No  longer  their  wickedness  shall  find, 

A  place  in  the  heart  that  truth  shall  win. 

Ecclesias  who  have  preached  the  false  ideas, 
Shall  be  ashamed  what  in  life  they  have  taught, 

Their  scheming  lore  shall  forever  cease, 
The  light  of  truth  shall  bring  their  fruits  to  naught. 

Autocracy  is  doomed  to  pass  away  from  earth, 
Aristocracy  with  its  idle  scheming  plan, 

Plutocracy  with  all  its  evil  dearth, 

Shall  be  removed  in  the  Father's  glorious  plan. 

This  triune  evil  in  false  ideas  of  life, 
Is  sustained  by  anti-Christ  in  evil  snare, 

Shall  perish,  no  longer  mar  the  earth  with  strife, 
No  longer  shall  Ecclesias  preach  its  hellish  fear. 


10  WBEHOLD,  T  MAKE  A"LL,  THINGS  NEW" 


The  world  that  was,  with  all  its  evil  dearth, 
Is  giving  way  to  the  world  of  peace  to  come, 

the  fierce  war  of  nations  now  on  earth, 

Shall  be  the  means  for  man  to  have  a  happy  home. 

Home  blessed  in  wisdom  of  God's  love, 
With  everlasting  life  to  bless  its  hearth, 

Sustained  by  grace,  in  the  true  ideas  above, 
Fulfill  the  promise  "Peace,  good  will  on  earth." 

These  are  the  teachings  of  truth  and  love, 
That  Jesus  taught,  our  pathway  here  to  shine, 

Our  Father's  purpose  is,  all  sin  to  remove, 
Bestow  upon  man,  fruits  of  live  divino. 

The  nations  shall  awake  to  do  the  Father's  will 
To  bless  its  families  all,  in  truth  and  love, 

Heaven's  peace  to  bless,  the  promise  to  fulfill, 
The  heart  of  stone  from  man,  He  shall  remove. 

Long  ages  the  earth  has  suffered  in  false  ideas, 
Through  kings  and  rulers  sustained  in  life, 

By  Ecclesias  annointing  in  false  ideas, 
To  rule  the  people  in  evil  strife. 

Their  daring,  cruel  rule  of  life, 

Shall  be  destroyed,  earth  shall  have  peace, 
With  Heavenly  wisdom  the  nations  now  are  rife, 

The  kingdom  of  truth  and  love  shall  seize. 

The  words  of  Jesus,  they  are  our  light, 
They  are  our  guide  to  conquer  evil  snare, 

They  shall  comfort  the  nations  this  dark  night, 
Shall  lead  mankind,  the  Father's  wisdom  share. 


"BEHOLD,  I  MAKE  ALL,  THINGS  NEW"  11 


His  words  and  works  shall  puige  the  earth, 
Of  false  ideas  with  its  scheming  lore, 

Shall  be  the  means  to  banish  evil  dearth, 
In  the  Father's  true  ideas — death  shall  be  no  more. 

In  everlasting  life  man's  mind  shall  here  live, 
This  is  the  promise  of  Jesus'  loving  word, 

Within  our  heart,  the  germ  of  life  shall  give, 
Blest  in  the  Father's  love  in  truth  accord. 

"If  a  man  keep  My  sayings,  he  shall  never  see  death/' 
These  are  the  words  of  Jesus  that  shall  bless  us  all, 

That  shall  remove  the  false  ideas,  its  wrath, 
"Man  shall  never  die,"  is  the  Heavenly  call. 

The  nations  shall  be  the  Lords  and  of  his  Christ. 

The  kingdom  of  Heaven  shall  come  on  earth, 
And  shall  bless  man  in  the  power  of  Christ, 

Shall  live  Eternally,  in  Heavenly  mirth. 

These  are  the  promises  that  shall  be  fulfilled, 
The  earth  in  glory  shall  blossom  as  the  rose, 

The  Father,  the  principle  of  life,  hath  willed; 
Man  shall  be  free  of  false  ideas,  woes. 

The  darkness  on  the  earth  that  now  prevail, 
Shall  soon  be  turned  to  day  of  glorious  light, 

And  man  through  its  healing  rays,  shall  avail, 
To  live  for  ever  more  in  truth  and  right. 

Democracy  of  the  world,  God  shall  use, 
To  remove  autocracy  and  its  cruel  strife. 

No  longer  shall  its  evil  scheme  abuse. 
Nor  shall  it  longer  destroy  human  life. 


12  "BEHOLD  I  MAKE  ALL  THINGS  NEW" 


Our  nation's  flag  of  Liberty,  is  unfurled 

To  save  the  nations  of  earth,  in  peace  to  live, 

Restore  its  amity,  throughout  the  world, 
With  might  of  truth,  Eternal  victory  give. 

We  hear  the  cry  of  nations  now  at  war, 

Pleading  for  existence  here  to  live, 
The  cruel  works  of  evil  shall  soon  be  o'er, 

God,  our  Father,  shall  Democracy  victory  give. 

Our  nation  is  created,  true  ideas  to  bear, 
Its  fruit  of  righteousness  shall  remove  the  sin 

That  all  the  people  of  the  earth  shall  share, 
The  blessings  of  true  life  to  win. 

The  sword  of  autocracy  with  its  cruel  hate, 

Has  been  lifted  up  to  conquer  earth, 
In  false  Idealist's  scheming  state, 

To  further  its  power  of  evil  dearth. 

The  call  of  democracy,  to  smite  this  evil  sword 

Is  the  call  of  Heaven  sweet  harmony, 
Fulfill  the  promise  of  the  Father's  word, 

To  restore  on  earth  tranquility. 

"He  that  lifteth  up  the  sword,  must  be  killed  by  the 
sword," 

Are  the  warning  the  Spirit  of  God  did  give, 
Man  shall  receive  power  to  fulfill  His  word, 

To  fight  for  peace  and  harmony  to  live. 

True  men  shall  awake,  false  ideas  to  remove, 

They  shall  smite  autocracy  sin, 
Establish  on  earth  in  wisdom  and  love, 

Freedom  for  all  forever  to  win. 


"BEHOLD,  I  MAKE  ALL  THINGS  NEW"  13 


Freedom  to  live  In  the  Christ  of  God, 
Freedom  to  love  and  to  bless, 

Freedom  to  dwell  in  truth's  abode, 
Freedom,  true  life  to  possess. 

Forever  to  live  in  peace  on  earth, 
Forever  abide  in  God's  word, 

Forever  enjoy  true  wisdom's  worth, 
Forever  one  with  the  Lord. 

This  is  the  fruit  the  nations  shall  win, 

Its  people  be  restored  to  life, 
No  longer  shall  false  Idealist  sin, 

Cause  the  earth  to  suffer  from  strife. 

Rejoice  all  ye  people  of  earth;  rejoice! 

Your  day  of  salvation  is  here, 
Times  of  refreshings,  with  Heavenly  joys, 

Shall  bring  to  us  all  Heavenly  cheer. 


Fruits  of  False  Ideas 


The  world  is  full  of  darkness, 

In  false  ideas  of  life, 
The  people  love  and  lifeless, 

Are  lost  in  evil  strife, 
The  war  and  its  commotion, 

Fill  all  with  evil  fear, 
They  are  lost  in  hell's  creatioa, 

To  fiendish  deeds  adhere. 

Man  left  the  true  creation, 

He  made  his  heart  a  stone, 
He  knows  no  true  emotion, 

He  gropes  through  life  alone. 
To  guide  them  they  have  chosen, 

Vile  cunning  men  to  lead, 
With  hopes  that  they  might  loosen, 

A  better  life  to  heed. 

These  leaders  work  their  cunning, 

Are  organized  for  pelf, 
The  masses  seek  to  winning, 

Honors  for  their  self. 
They  trust  in  vile  tradition, 

They  twist  the  word  of  God, 
They  go  straight  to  purdition, 

In  false  ideas  abode. 

Long  ages  the  world  have  suffered, 

The  masses  of  mankind, 
Their  honest  aim  been  pilfered, 

To  suit  their  leaders  mind. 
The  priestcraft  of  all  nations, 

Their  life  have  filled  with  ease, 
Have  caused  through  their  contention, 

Its  wealth  and  comfort  seize,

FRUITS  OF  FALSE  IDEAS  15 


The  day  of  false  idealist, 

Is  coming  to  a  close, 
Who  grope  the  world  in  hellish  mist, 

In  toils  of  death  repose. 
The  selfish  arms  of  rulers* 

In  the  nations  of  the  earth, 
They  fill  the  people  with  their  curse, 

Of  fear  and  evil  dearth. 

The  light  of  truth  and  equity, 

Is  shining,  man  to  save, 
Remove  the  false  iniquity, 

To  save  him  from  the  grave. 
Democracy  is  awakening, 

The  nations  to  restore, 
In  the  life  of  recreating, 

With  blessings  of  love  in  store. 

Our  Father  who  is  in  Heaven, 

Will  give  His  peace  to  all, 
Fulfill  the  promise  given, 

To  bless  in  heavenly  call. 
The  words  and  works  of  Jesus, 

Are  now  a  light  to  shine, 
His  presence  now  is  with  us, 

To  make  the  world  divine. 

True  men  now  are  awakened, 

To  lead  the  people  all, 
Away  from  paths  that  blackened, 

In  false  idealist  fall. 
The  people  all  shall  glory, 

In  the  love  of  God  adhere, 
Who  in  His  truth  and  mercy, 

Shall  bless  all  nations  here, 


16  FRUITS  OF  FALSE  IDEAS 


A  glorious  time  is  coming, 

All  men  and  beasts  shall  be; 
Blest  in  the  light  that's  shining, 

Its  healing  rays  shall  see. 
The  glorious  truth  of  Jesus, 

Shall  remove  the  curse  of  war; 
With  heavenly  love  shall  bless  us, 

Vile  nature  to  be  no  more. 

The  cleansing  of  the  nations, 

Will  first  take  place  on  earth; 
Remove  the  condemnation, 

Remove  autocracy's  dearth; 
All  fiendish  men  as  rulers, 

Shall  be  cut  out  from  life; 
No  longer  cause  to  suffer, 

The  nations  in  evil  strife. 

The  promise  it  is  given, 

That  men,  both  great  and  small; 
Their  sorrows  shall  be  riven, 

Prom  death  to  life  recall. 
The  times  of  sweet  refreshing, 

From  the  presence  of  the  Lord, 
With  healing  streams  a  gushing, 

Fulfill  His  promised  word. 

Our  Saviour,  He  will  lead  our  way, 

To  realms  of  pure  delight; 
He'll  turn  our  dismal  night  to  day, 

In  democracy's  glorious  light. 
The  earth  shall  sing  with  gladness, 

Life's  prospect  that's  in  store; 
When  man  shall  cease  his  sadness, 

Be  alive  for  ever  more, 


Isms  and  Schisms  of 
Anti-Christ 


Isms  and  schisms  in  false  ideas  of  life, 
Are  a  menace  to  man  is  fraught  with  evil  strife; 

It  fills  the  mind  with  doubts  and  fear, 
Makes  life  a  gloom  no  hopes  to  cheer. 

This  is  the  condition  of  the  earth  today, 
The  enemies  of  truth  in  wild  dismay; 

Are  struggling  for  mastery  to  control  mankind, 
Thru  vicious  deeds  in  false  ideas  of  mind. 

In  foolish  arguments,  in  schisms  galore, 
Are  lost  to  reason  their  creeds  adore; 

Each  claim  they  have  the  easiest  way, 
To  save  mankind  in  truth — they  say. 

They  rely  upon  traditions  of  man, 

They  ignore  the  truth  of  the  Father's  plan; 

They  make  a  discord  of  what  Jesus  told, 
For  pelf  and  honor  their  soul  have  sold. 

Their  arguments  and  doctrines  they  are  far, 
From  the  teachings  of  Jesus,  what  they  are; 

Their  theory  of  doctrine  are  a  conglomeration, 
Jesus  never  taught  in  such  was  salvation. 

'Tis  not  what  the  body  does  that  brings  us  salvation, 
'Tis  the  change  of  mind  into  true  creation; 

The  body  is  governed  by  the  soul  within, 
The  mind  of  the  Father  is  the  means  life  to  win. 

"Let  this  mind  be  in  you"  are  the  words  of  Paul, 
Who  gave  no  thought  in  falsehood's  call; 

'Tis  the  mind  of  the  Father  in  Jesus  did  dwell, 
That's  the  means  of  salvation,  in  truth  to  be  well. 


ISMS   AND   SCHISMS   OF   ANTI-CHRIST 


Those  blest  in  true  ideas  of  life, 

Shall  conquer  the  power  of  evil  strife; 

No  longer  concerned  over  traditions  of  man, 
They  adhere  to  the  truth  of  the  Father's  plan. 

They  abide  in  the  vine,  its  fruit  they  bear, 
The  kingdom  of  heaven  its  life  they  share; 

With  Jesus  annointed  in  wisdom  above, 
Their  life  is  absorbed  in  the  Father's  great  love 

They  do  not  concern  what  traditions  do  say, 
They  are  one  in  the  spirit  of  the  Father  alway; 

They  do  not  rely  on  the  teachings  of  man — 
This  does  not  lead  them  to  the  Father's  great  plan. 

The  words  of  the  Saviour  alone  is  their  guide, 
In  truth  of  the  Father  to  always  abide; 

Who  warned  them  to  evade  the  evil  traditions, 
And  lose  not  the  way  to  the  Father's  salvation. 

Abide  in  me,  my  words  to  believe, 

This  is  the  condition  truth  to  receive; 

Repent  the  falsa  ideas  of  mind, 
Is  the  way  the  Father's  truth  to  find. 

He  never  spoke  of  His  birth  or  death, 
To  be  the  means  for  man  to  be  in  the  truth; 

His  body  bore  the  fruit  of  love, 
In  action  to  his  living  thoughts  above. 

The  way  to  salvation  is  to  change  our  mind, 
Ask,  seek,  knock,  is  the  means  to  find — 

Salvation  from  sin  in  false  ideas  of  life, 
Salvation  from  anti-Christ's  evil  strife. 


ISMS  AND   SCHISMS  OF  ANTI-CHRIST  19 


This  is  the  plan  of  our  Father's  salvation, 
Repent  in  our  thoughts  false  ideas  creation; 

This  is  the  only  means  we  can  find, 
To  establish  within  us  the  Father's  true  mind. 

By  grace  we  are  saved  in  true  ideas  of  life, 
More  than  conquerers  we  shall  be  over  strife; 

One  with  the  Father  in  Jesus  to  be, 
This  is  the  salvation  mankind  soon  shall  see. 

No  longer  shall  anti-Christ  with  its  schisms  galore, 
No  longer  the  earth  be  subject  to  war; 

It  shall  be  removed  from  the  nations  of  earth, 
False  idealist  no  longer  shall  further  its  dearth. 

This  is  the  promise  the  Saviour  did  give, 
New  heavens  and  new  earth  for  man  here  to  live; 

In  life  everlasting,  in  truth  they  shall  shine, 
The  families  of  earth  be  made  all  divine. 

No  longer  shall  fruits  of  false  ideas, 
In  autocracy's  power  the  nations  to  seize; 

Aristocracy  and  plutocracy  are  doomed  to  die, 
Who  are  the  weapons  in  anti-Christ  lie? 

No  evil  shall  harm  in  the  day  of  the  Lord, 

Mankind  shall  be  blest  in  the  truth  of  His  word; 

The  nations  shall  rejoice,  forever  shall  be, 
One  with  the  Father  through  eternity. 


Anti-Christ  and  Its  Deception 


Thy  very  nature  now  is  known, 

Thou  art  false  in  word  and  deed; 
Thy  venomous  spirit  it  is   shown, 

Thy  life  in  evil  seed. 
Thou  has  ruled  the  worrd  with  tyrant  hand, 

Thou  hast  bled  the  people's  heart — 
Hast  killed  all  those  who  dared  withstand, 

Who  lived  from  thee  apart. 

The  fruits  of  evil  thou  hast  here, 

Has  caused  the  nations  all 
To  suffer  from  thine  hellish  fear, 

In  thy  cunning,  scheeming  call. 
They  have  felt  thine  iron  hand, 

That  crushed  their  life  away; 
Thy  evil  power  in  every  land, 

Done  in  thine  evil  day. 

The  spirit  of  truth  now  makes  it  known, 

What  thou  art  here  in  life — 
Thy  evil  ways  shall  all  be  shown, 

Thy  cruel  vicious  strife; 
Religion  is  thy  camouflage, 

To  hide  thy  evil  shame; 
No  words  in  any  language, 

Can  describe  thy  very  name. 

The  hypocrites  that  Jesus  met, 

The  language  to  them  ascribed, 
For  all  true  mind  shall  not  forget, 

How  well  their  life  described. 
More  so  in  thee,  True  God  defamed, 

Our  God  of  love  and  life; 
For  thou  hast  in  thy  life  proclaimed 

Him  God  of  evil  strife.

ANTI-CHRIST—DECEPTION  21 


The  Father  who  is  our  very  being, 

Our  very  soul  and  life, 
Thou  hast  made  a  stupendous  being— 

A  fiend  in  evil  strife. 
"Our  Father"  whom  Jesus  taught  us  say, 

According  to  thy  word, 
Is  not  a  Father,  in  such  evil  way, 

Such  life  true  nature  can  afford. 

Thou  dost  teach  God  lives  on  high, 

The  only  way  for  man  to  know, 
Is  through  your  creed  here  to  draw  nigh, 

Heaven's  future  life  to  show; 
What  vicious  scheeming,  all  for  pelf, 

All  for  ease  of  life  and  gain; 
All  to  glorify  thyself, 

All  for  this  the  masses  slain. 

The  day  has  come,  the  words  of  life — 

The  words  of  truth  and  love, 
As  told  by  Jesus,  reveals  your  strife, 

Your  false  ideas  shall  move, 
The  day  has  come  when  camouflage, 

Shall  not  hide  your  evil  name, 
The  spirit  of  truth  doth  now  engage, 

The  hearts  you  once  did  maim. 

The  promise  is  that  all  shall  know, 

The  truth  shall  make  us  free; 
Your  cruel  viciousness  shall  show, 

Your  life  in  truth  does  not  agree. 
The  true  idealist  you  have  killed, 

His  fair  name  you  have  harmed, 
God's  promises  shall  be  "fulfilled, 

The  earth  by  you  no  longer  charmed. 


The  Evil  of  Anti-Christ 


An-ti  Christ  are  those  who  believe, 

The  traditions  of  false  ideas, 
Its  fruits  of  error  they  receive, 

That  mars  the  true  ideas; 
They  know  not  love  that  Jesus  taught, 

They  abide  not  in  the  vine — 
Their  life  in  errors  ways  are  fraught, 

They  know  not  truth  divine. 

The  time  is  here  and  they  shall  know, 

What  falsehood  they  are  teaching, 
The  Spirit  of  truth  in  them  shall  show, 

The  errors  of  their  thinking; 
They'll  know  how  far  from  truth  have  gone, 

They'll  know  their  foolish  ism, 
Has  no  power  to  depend  upon, 

No  hope  in  evil  schism. 

The  words  of  truth  that  Jesus  taught, 

Are  far  from  what  they  are  teaching, 
The  Father's  true  ideas  he  brought, 

In  them  are  not  abiding; 
They  see  in  words  that  Jesus  spoke, 

No  promise  of  new  creation — 
The  true  ideas  they  all  revoke, 

They  preach  hell's  condemnation. 

Our  Saviour  spoke  of  love  and  life, 

Right  here  on  earth  its  blessing, 
To  remove  from  man  the  evil  strife, 

New  heart  in  Him  creating; 
They  claim  that  all  mankind  must  die, 

To  own  the  heaven  of  Jesus, 
In  traditions  of  men  they  all  rely, 

If  we  don't  believe  they  curse  us. 


THE  EVIL  OF  ANTI-CHRIST  23 


We  must  believe  their  hellish  creed, 

If  we  want  heaven  hereafter; 
They  are  in  error  thoughts  indeed, 

The  meaning  of  truth  to  alter. 
'Tis  done  in  false  ideas  of  mind, 

'Tis  done  in  evil  scheeming, 
In  truth  of  God  we  all  shall  find, 

The  errors  of  their  believing. 

They,  themselves,  shall  know  ere  long, 

What  falsehood  they  have  taught  us, 
They  shall  know  where  they  belong — 

Misapply  the  words  of  Jesus; 
They  must  believe  and  shall  believe, 

That  God  so  loved  the  world, 
That  all  the  nations  shall  receive, 

In  the  flag  of  peace,  unfurled. 

Our  Saviour  did  not  once  declare, 

That  death  would  bring  salvation — 
That  heavenly  blessings  we  would  share, 

As  taught  in  false  creation; 
He  taught  us  to  abide  in  him, 

Believe  me,  "shall  never  die," 
Notwithstanding,  ecclesias  whim, 

We  must  die  to  'never  die.' 

What  isms  schisms  do  we  find, 

In   anti-Christ  believing, 
What  conglomeration  in  their  mind, 

The  fruit's  of  evil  scheeming; 
"I  am  the  door,  I  am  the  way," 

Our  loving  Saviour  told  us, 
Abide  in  me  to  live  always, 

This  is  the  truth  of  Jesus. 


24  THE   EVIL,  OF  ANTI-CHRIST 


But  soon  this  anti-Christ  shall  see, 

What  evil  mind  they  have, 
They  shall  be  known  the  heavenly  ways, 

See  no  merits  in  death  and  grave; 
No  power  but  the  truth  of  God, 

Shall  annul  the  power  of  sin, 
Believe  and  abide  in  truth's  abode, 

Everlasting  life  to  win. 

All  nations  soon  in  truth  shall  be, 

Enjoying  heavenly  blessings, 
Eternal  life  they  all  shall  see, 

In  truth  its  power  receiving; 
Our  hope  of  heaven  is  in  our  heart, 

The  Father's  life  within  us, 
From  His  great  love,  shall  never  part, 

These  are  the  truths  of  Jesus, 


Organization  in  Anti-Christ 


In  organization  anti-Christ  are  formed, 
Claiming  humanity  thereby  are  reformed; 

In  conflict  they  are  with  truth  of  our  Lord, 

"Come  out  from  among  them,"  is  the  truth  of  His 
word. 

No  reformation  can  come  from  such  ideas, 
That  fosters  in  scheems  mankind  all  to  seize; 

Such  as  is  in  anti-Christ's  vicious  lore, 
The  wealth  and  honor  in  life  they  adore. 

With  boastful  words  claim  truth  of  God, 
While  their  minds  in  false  ideas  abode; 

Their  leaders,  a  scheeming  set  of  men, 
Catching  the  weary  with  their  bold  amen. 

God  doth  not  deal  with  organization, 

The  life  of  our  Lord  is  the  true  direction; 

To  acquaint  ourselves  with  the  Father's  love, 
The  only  means  to  be  in  truth  above. 

The  parable  of  "the  tares"  gives  us  the  guide, 

In  organization  we  are  not  to  abide; 
"Abide  in  me"  are  the  truths  of  our  Lord, 

The  wheat  class  are  those  faithful  to  His  word. 

When  boastful  men  with  bold  acclamation, 
Declare  to  the  people  they  have  the  salvation — 

In  schemes  and  contention,  beware  of  their  sin, 
All  they  are  after  is  self-honor  to  win. 

They  have  nothing  of  truth  to  offer  mankind, 
They  have  not  the  merits  of  truth  in  their  mind; 

To  cry,  "Lord,  Lord,"  is  no  means  for  salvation, 
Shall  never  bring  men  into  true  creation. 


26  ORGANIZATIONS  IN  ANTI-CHRIST 


The  words  of  our  Lord  are  words  of  salvation, 
Truth  of  his  mind  removes  condemnation; 

Removes  that  which  offends  in  organization, 
Removes  anti-Christ's  loud  acclamation. 

The  great  war  of  nations  now  on  the  earth, 
Is  the  fruit  of  anti-Christ  in  evil  dearth; 

They  have  ruined  mankind  in  ages  gone  by, 
The  day  of  their  judgment  to  remove  them  is  nigh. 

The  faithful  in  Christ,  His  truth  now  they  see, 
The  doom  of  the  ecclesias  of  anti-Christ  to  be; 

Dissolved  into  oblivion  forever  to  stay, 
No  longer  on  earth  their  evil  shall  slay. 

Their  boastful  ecclisias  claim  they  can  win, 
The  families  of  earth  from  the  power  of  sin ; 

When  they  in  themselves  are  blinded  to  truth, 
Their  mind  filled  with  hate  in  language  uncouth. 

The  boast  they  can  bring  to  man  truth  from  above, 
They  claim  they  dwell  in  the  Father's  great  love; 

But  Jesus  has  told  us,  "Beware  of  the  scribe," 
For  honor  and  wealth  the  masses  they  bribe. 

Anti-Christ  has  thousands  of  organizations, 
All  claim  the  best  way  to  obtain  salvation; 

All  claim  the  Father's  great  love  all  their  own, 
The  greatest  of  light  in  them  it  is  shown. 

They  control  our  birth,  our  marriage,  our  burying, 
Good  job  for  the  dead  is  the  Lord's  true  saying; 

"Let  the  dead  bury  the  dead,"  "Follow  thou  me!" 
These  are  the  truths  the  faithful  now  see. 


ORGANIZATIONS  IN  ANTI-CHRIST  27 


Follow  the  Saviour  is  the  way  to  be  sure, 

From  schemes  of  the  ecclesias  our  soul  to  abjure; 

The  haven  of  rest  from  power  of  deception, 
That  anti-Christ  offers  in  its  false  salvation. 

The  masses  of  humanity  soon  they  shall  be 
The  deception  of  evil  of  anti-Christ  shall  see; 

Their  ecclisias  no  longer  to  further  their  way, 
In  torment  as  done  in  their  past  evil  day. 

The  ecclisias  of  anti-Christ  are  deceptive  through  life, 
They  have  caused  the  dissentions  among  us  in  strife; 

Their  long  holy  face  shall  not  save  them  from  wrath, 
God  has  condemned  them  for  their  hatred  of  truth. 

For  any  to  write  the  words  I  write  here, 
In  ages  gone  by  would  go  to  hell  sure; 

And  the  cruelest  mode  they  would  use — they  say, 
Would  be  warning  to  others  their  actions  to  stay. 

They  are  shorn  of  their  bluffing  to  do  any  harm 
They  no  longer  have  power  the  masses  to  charm; 

The  people  have  turned  them  away  from  their  life, 
No  longer  the  earth  to  rule  with  their  strife. 

Now  they  are  busy  great  wealth  to  procure, 
They  scheme  all  they  can  their  existence  make  sure 

They  are  to  be  pitied  such  weakness  possess, 
Deny  in  their  life  God's  truth  to  confess. 

The  power  of  anti-Christ  on  the  masses  they  had, 
Was  given  them  through  vile  statesmen  they  made; 

See  how  the  truth  removes  all  their  schemes, 
No  longer  shall  men  believe  on  their  themes. 


28  ORGANIZATIONS  IN  ANTI-CHRIST 


They  are  the  has  beens,  no  longer  have  power, 
To  rule  in  the  nations  in  evil  to  gather; 

Our  Father  has  awakened  great  minds  in  the  earth, 
To  remove  forever  ecclesias  vile  dearth. 

All  nations  of  earth  shall  be  in  God's  love, 
Conform  all  its  families  in  truth  from  above; 

See  the  great  struggle  in  anti-Christ  lore, 
No  longer  the  nations  their  doctrines  adore. 

The  day  of  restitution  is  here  to  stay, 
Our  Father  in  mind  shall  bless  us  always; 

He'll  teach  all  mankind  to  live  and  to  love, 
Bring  blessings  of  truth  on  earth  from  above. 

We  shall  not  be  troubled  with  anti-Christ's  lie, — 
Its  power  of  deception  shall  forever  pass  by; 

Humanity  all  shall  live  in  true  life, 
That  will  remove  all  that  offend  in  cruel  strife. 

The  struggle  among  us  on  earth  today, 
Is  the  means  all  power  of  sin  pass  away; 

Remove  from  the  heart  the  deception  of  sin, 
Life  everlasting  in  our  God  we  shall  win. 

The  promise  of  our  Father  is  ours  for  aye, 
No  longer  to  fall  into  sin  by  the  way; 

Restored  in  the  mind  of  our  Saviour  to  live, 
This  is  the  promise  our  Father  doth  give. 


Anti-Christ's  True  Nature" 


In  the  days  of  Jesus  false  idealist  was  rife, 
In  religion  binding  themselves  in  evil  strife; 

The  same  today,  they  have  left  the  word  of  God, 
Their  whole  reliance  is  in  false  ideas  abode. 

The  members  of  the  churches  who  are  in  false  ideas 

of  life, 

Are  anti-Christ,  are  steeped  in  evil  strife; 
The  ecclesias  they  engaged  to  preach,  they  seek  to  win 
Those  like  themselves,  who  are  steeped  in  hypoc- 
racy  sin. 

This  class  is  found  in  business  world  for  gain, 
They  leave  a  trail  of  vicious  cruel  stain; 

They  use  the  church  to  hide  their  evil  shame, 
A  selfish,  scheming  class,  seek  mankind  to  maim. 

This  class  of  evil  men,  they  know  not  true  life, 
Their  very  being  is  steeped  in  evil  strife; 

A  cunning  mastery  with  no  respect  for  love, 
They  live  a  life  far  from  truth  above. 

The  different  denomination,  they  maintain, 
A  class  of  men  steeped  in  evil  shame — 

On  Sunday  meet  in  church  with  vicious  eye, 
Seeking  whom  to  devour  in  thoughts  that  lie. 

To  further  their  wicked  schemes,  they  belong, 
To  different  secret  societies  to  lean  upon; 

Their  heart  is  narrow,  full  of  viciousness, 
Their  aim  in  life  is  to  curse  rather  than  bless. 


30  ANTI-CHRIST'S   TRUE   NATURE 


They  exercise  what  little  love  they  have, 
Toward  themselves  in  selfishness  to  save; 

They  care  not  for  the  people  of  the  earth, 
They  love  to  bring  on  them  their  evil  dearth. 

This  is  the  fruit  of  anti-Christ  in  them  all, 
Who  joins  each  other  in  any  selfish  call; 

They  never  train  their  mind  to  love  and  bless, 
Their  evil  narrow  creed  they  in  life  confess. 

This  power  of  anti-Christ  shall  soon  be  destroyed, 
No  longer  shall  ecclesias  evil  mind  be  employed; 

To  fool  mankind,  its  prosperity  on  the  earth, 
No  longer  shall  they  its  families  fill  with  evil  dearth 

The  light  of  truth  that  Jesus  taught, 

Shall  bring  their  vicious  mind  to  naught; 

The  ecclesias  they  employ  shall  die, 
No  longer  fill  the  earth  with  wicked  lie. 

They  shall  not  fool  the  masses  as  they  have  done, 
The  light  of  truth  shall  remove  them  every  one; 

They  must  accept  the  heavenly  life  and  love, 
And  exercise  the  same  in  truth  above. 

That  is  the  purpose  of  democracy  on  earth, 
Remove  the  power  of  false  ideas  dearth; 

To  bless  mankind  in  wisdom,  grace  and  love, 
Restore  in  them  the  truth  of  God  above. 


"False  Ideas  Shall  Be  No  More" 


False  ideas  with  its  scheming  lore, 

Shall  trouble  nations  of  the  earth  no  more; 

The  truth  of  God  shall  banish  all  its  dearth, 
Shall  bless  the  nations  with  heavenly  mirth. 

Our  heavenly  Father's  purpose  is, 

To  save  the  nations  in  heavenly  bliss; 

Remove  forever  all  false  ideas, 

Make  known  to  all  His  truth  to  seize. 

Statesmen  and  politicians  who  in  life, 
Are  Scheming  in  selfishness  and  cruel  strife — 

Shall  be  cast  to  oblivion  there  to  stay, 
No  longer  shall  their  wiles  lead  men  astray. 

The  men  who  aspire  to  govern  man, 

Must  conform  to  truth  of  the  Father's  plan; 

Must  show  in  their  heart  their  zeal  for  right, 
Must  walk  through  life  in  heavenly  light. 

No  blare  of  trumpets,  no  red  light  fire, 
Shall  be  the  means  the  earth  to  inspire; 

The  heart  in  truth  must  be  to  shine, 
The  blessings  of  love  in  life  divine. 

Note  those  who  cling  to  false  ideas, 

How  one  by  one  their  power  shall  cease, 

They'll  find  no  place  for  evil  thought, 
Their  mind  must  change,  in  wisdom  fraught. 

The  nations  of  the  earth  shall  be, 
United  in  the  Father's  love,  to  see; 

The  truth,  life's  pathway  here  to  shine, 
To  know  the  power  of  love  divine. 


32  FALSE   IDEAS  SHALL  BE  NO  MORE 


Autocracy  shall  rule  on  earth  no  more, 
Aristocracy,  their  cruel  vicious  lore; 

Plutocracy's  evil  is  doomed  to  pass  away, 
No  longer  shall  their  evil  work  be  here  to  stay. 

Earth  shall  have  peace,  is  the  promised  word, 
As  taught  in  the  mind  of  our  Saviour  Lord; 

No  vicious  man  shall  find  a  place, 
To  harm  the  families  of  our  race. 

They  have  had  their  days  of  evil  here, 
They've  used  their  power  in  hellish  fear; 

Make  slave  of  man,  God's  precious  being, 
On  earth  no  more  evil  to  man  shall  bring. 

The  Father's  plan  is  to  save  the  earth, 

Remove  forever  all  evil  dearth; 
Unite  the  nations  in  truth  above, 

The  peoples  home  be  blest  with  love. 

The  earth  shall  never,  never  more, 

Be  subject  to  false  idealist  lore; 
The  Father  the  principle  of  life  within, 

Shall  remove  from  man  the  power  of  sin, 


"The  False  Idealist" 


In  false  ideas  man  in  life, 

Has  made  himself  a  fiend; 
His  heart  is  full  of  evil  strife, 

Away  from  truth  is  weaned. 
Filled  he  is  with  ills  and  woes, 

In  selfishness  is  lost — 
Unkind  he  is  wher'er  he  goes, 

In  life  he  is  a  frost. 

He  thinks  of  self  alone  in  life, 

Wealth  is  his  chief  delight; 
To  rob  and  cheat  his  heart  is  rife — 

Defies  all  truth  and  right. 
His  soul  is  dead,  his  heart  is  cold, 

He  thinks  of  naught  but  pelf, 
In  all  his  days  he  seeks  for  gold, 

To  satisfy  himself. 

This  is  true  of  false  ideas, 

In  it  man  forgets  his  God — 
Forgets  in  life  the  true  ideas, 

He  dwells  in  vile  abode. 
For  fellow  man  forgets  to  live, 

His  heart  is  cruel  and  cold; 
He  loves  to  rob  rather  than  give, 

He  loves  the  most  his  gold. 

This  is  a  false  foundation, 

That  man  in  life  partakes, 
His  life  is  contamination, 

Of  sorrows,  griefs  and  aches. 
He  is  lost  to  all  fair  dealing, 

He  knows  no  acts  that's  kind — 
His  soul  and  heart  are  failing, 

In  fruit  of  evil  mind. 


34  THE   FALSE  IDEALIST 


He  cloaks  himself  in  isms, 

In  narrow  whims  and  creed; 
He  glories  in  false  schisms, 

To  satisfy  his  greed. 
He  cloaks  himself  to  appear, 

A  man  of  true  ideas, 
In  his  heart  is  vile  with  fear, 

And  cold  as  zero  freeze. 

He  joins  the  church  to  appear, 

As  a  man  who  walks  with  God; 
But  in  his  heart  is  filled  with  fear, 

He  dwells  in  false  abode. 
His  hobby  is,  believe  in  hell — 

To  all  who  don't  believe, 
The  future  state  the  churches  tell, 

Its  tortured  life  receive. 

The  world  today  is  wiser  far, 

Than  the  churches  he  belongs, 
They  are  nearer  true,  and  blessings  share, 

More  joyous  happy  throng — 
Hypocrites  soon  shall  Be, 

Destroyed,  no  more  on  earth, 
The  nations  all,  truth  shall  see, 

Removed  all  evil  dearth. 

"God  moves  in  mysterious  ways" 

To  those  in  false  ideas, 
God's  kingdom  is  nearer  every  day — 

To  those  in  true  ideas. 
The  false  creation  now  on  earth, 

Shall  know  in  this  great  war, 
Shall  have  no  power  in  heavenly  mirth, 

Its*  evil  -to  he  no  more. 


Awakening  of  Mankind 


The  Spirit  of  "Our  Father," 

Shall  awake  mankind  to  life, 
In  the  folds  of  truth  shall  gather, 

Away  from  evil  strife; 
He  calleth  now  the  nations, 

In  truth  and  love  devine, 
In  the  power  of  new  creation, 

In  Liberty's  light  to  shine. 

The  world  that's  now  in  sorrow, 

Shall  be  in  love  and  life, 
No  longer  evil  borrow — 

No  longer  suffer  strife. 
The  Spirit  of  Our  Father, 

Shall  guide  the  nations  on, 
To  win  the  heavenly  favor — 

Its  truth  to  lean  upon. 

That's  why  the  earth's  on  fire, 

To  rid  the  dross  of  sin, 
To  remove  all  false  desire, 

The  heavenly  truth  to  win; 
The  nations  in  democracy, 

Shall  win  this  cruel  war, 
It  shall  destroy  autocracy, 

No  longer  earth  to  mar. 

Hope  of  joy  and  pleasure, 

Shall  come  to  earth  to  stay, 
Enjoy  the  heavenly  treasure, 

That  turns  our  night  to  day; 
Our  noble  men  are  fighting, 

To  lay  the  enemy  low, 
To  gain  the  promised  blessing — 

In  wisdom  here  to  grow. 


36  AWAKENING    OF   MANKIND 


The  families  of  the  earth, 

Shall  heavenly  blessings  share, 
When  false  idealist's  dearth, 

No  longer  nations  snare. 
The  death  of  their  vile  nature, 

Shall  be  to  bless  mankind — 
Bestow  on  every  creature, 

The  heavenly  Father's  mind. 

The  nations  of  the  world, 

Shall  be  the  Lord's  in  love, 
The  flag  of  freedom  now  unfurled, 

In  harmony  with  truth  above ; 
To  bless  the  world  of  mankind, 

Bring  peace  in  all  their  land, 
In  words  of  Jesus  all  shall  find, 

Liberty's  peace  command. 


Evil  Shall  Disappear 


The  power  of  evil  shall  soon  disappear, 
No  longer  the  nations  to  fill  with  its  fear; 

The  power  of  truth  to  the  nations  shall  give, 
In  freedom  of  life,  its  families  to  live. 

These  are  the  promises  "Our  Father  in  heaven" 
Will   bestow  upon  man,  his   sins  be  forgiven; 

In  truth  be  blest  to  know  His  love  and  life, 
Forever  remove  autocracy's  strife. 

None  of  the  promise  our  Father  did  give, 
Shall  be  withheld,  true  life  man  shall  live; 

The  nations  of  earth,  in  truth  all  shall  shine, 
To  spend  all  their  days  in  graces  divine. 

The  nations  of  earth  shall  be  ruled  in  love, 
All  of  its  families  in  truth  from  above; 

The  words  of  our  Saviour  shall  be  their  guide, 
In  life  everlasting,  all  shall  abide. 


The  Doom  of  Plutocracy 


"Go  to  now,  ye  rich  men,  weep  and  howl  for  your 
miseries  that  shall  come  upon  you. 

"Your  riches  are  corrupted,  and  your  garments 
are  moth-eaten. 

"Your  gold  and  silver  is  cankered,  and  the  rust  of 
them  shall  be  a  witness  against  you;  and  shall  eat 
your  flesh  as  it  were  fire;  Ye  have  reaped  treasure 
for  the  last  days. 

"Behold  the  hire  of  the  labourers  who  have  reaped 
down  your  fields,  which  is  of  you  kept  back  by  fraud, 
crieth;  and  the  cries  of  them  which  have  reaped  are 
entered  into  the  ears  of  the  Lord  of  sabaoth. 

"Ye  have  lived  in  pleasure  on  the  earth,  and  have 
been  wanton;  ye  have  nourished  your  hearts,  as  in  a 
day  of  slaughter;  ye  have  condemned  and  killed  the 
just,  and  he  doth  not  resist  you." — James  5:1-6. 


Plutocracy  are  those  made  powerful  by  wealth, 
Usurping  their  schemes  in  vicious  stealth; 

A  product  of  false  ideas  of  mind, 
Uncouth  in  nature,  cruel  and  unkind. 

All  for  self  "the  public  be  damned" 
Is  the  policy  in  life  they  have  jammed; 

With  cruel  deeds  to  rob  and  cheat 

The  meek  and  humble  of  mankind  they  meet. 

Humanity  in  general  they  love  to  crush, 
Make  slaves  of  all  in  their  mad  rush; 

The  filthy  lucre  is  their  god  of  power, 
The  wealth  of  the  world  themselves  to  gather. 


THE  DOOM  OF  PLUTOCRACY  39 


Cruelty  is  the  developed  trait  of  their  life, 
Have  corrupted  the  nations  in  evil  strife — 

See  them  today  in  power  of  might, 
To  further  their  selfishness  this  evil  night. 

Ecclisias  have  dolled  them  with  power  and  grace, 
To  slave  all  those  who  are  meek  of  our  race; 

''Obey  your  masters,"  is  their  familiar  quotation, 
The  scriptures  they  use  in  evil  flirtation. 

The  scheming  of  plutocrats  is  known  of  the  Lord, 
Who  declares  their  evil  shall  no  longer  afford, 

To  enslave  the  people,  their  cruel  way 

Shall  banish  from  earth  to  oblivion  to  stay. 

What  sorrows,  what  troubles,  what  anguish  of  heart, 
Have  caused  the  people  in  the  gain  of  their  mart; 

They  consider  themselves  far  superior  in  life 
They  see  in  the  masses  fit  subjects  for  strife. 

When  the  poor  seek  shelter  in  organization, 

The  plutocrats  are  mad,  they  better  their  condition. 

They  denounce  their  Unions  as  anarchists  bold, 
While  themselves  are  organized  the  masses  to  hold. 

Thus  the  earth  is  encumbered  with  bold  evil  men, 
Who  make  of  the  masses,  their  homes  in  a  pen; 

Their  animals  are  housed  far  better  in  life, 

Than  men  who  serve  them  in  cruelty  and  strife. 

Know  ye,  ye  plutocrats  your  days  of  vile  snare, 
Are  close  to  the  end,  your  lives  are  made  bare; 

The  truth  of  our  Father  shall  remove  your  sin, 
The  families  of  earth  in  democracy  shall  win. 


40  THE  DOOM  OF  PLUTOCRACY 

The  false  ecelesias  upholds  your  sin, 

They  quote  in  the  scriptures  the  masses  to  win; 
You  have  dwelt  in  vile  actions  man  to  enslave 

Your  riches  nor  glory  you  no  longer  can  save. 

Democracy  is  not  fighting  autocracy  alone, 
Your  viciousness  is  included  in  the  war  that  is  on; 

Aristocracy  as  well  receives  its  death  blow, 
Forever  vile  nature  from  earth  all  shall  go. 

Man  is  the  highest  creation  of  God, 

With  spirit  and  mind  in  wisdom's  abode; 

The  meek  ones  are  those  whom  you  make  your  slave, 
Usurp  through  power  that  anti-Christ  gave. 

Democracy  to  you  is  a  farce  on  the  earth, 
The  idea  that  man  is  born  equal  at  birth; 

Your  nature  is  exalted  in  you  through  vile  bluff 
The  Father  of  nations  shall  your  evil  rebuff. 

Know  for  sure  the  day  of  restitution  is  here 
No  longer  ecclesias  in  anti-Christ  fear — 

Shall  force  on  the  people  to  be  your  slaves, 
Your  vile  nature  will  soon  be  put  in  the  grave. 

The  heart  within  man  that  causes  vile  dearth, 
No  longer  be  powerful  to  hurt  in  the  earth; 

Vile  nature  shall  change  God's  love  to  obey, 
In  truth  of  being  to  live  all  their  day. 

Thus  soon  the  end  of  your  evil  shall  come, 

The  masses  of  mankind   shall   be   blessed  with   a 
home; 

Not  tortured  and  burdened  in  your  evil  strife, 
But  supported  to  live  in  blessings  of  life. 

There  is  nothing  can  stop  the  power  of  love 
That  the  Father  has  ordained  in  truth  from  above; 

Mankind  shall  be  saved  to  live  here  on  earth, 
Be  they  ever  so  humble  or  poor  at  their  birth. 


THE  DOOM  OF  PLUTOCRACY  41 


The  ecclesias  of  anti-Christ  shall  be  shorne  of  its 

power, 
Their    hypocracy    shall    torment    the    masses    no 

longer; 

Their  heart  of  stone  shall  be  changed  to  love, 
Conforming  their  being  in  wisdom  above. 

This  is  the  victory  democracy  shall  give, 

Remove  your  vile  nature  for  all  here  to  live; 

In  peace  and  contentment  in  true  life  to  shine — 
Be  made  one  in  truth  and  wisdom  divine. 

Love  your  neighbor  as  yourself  is  the  law  of  life, 
Not  "Servants  obey  your  masters,"  in  evil  strife; 

Ecclesias  in  false  ideas  shall  know  the  truth, 
The  light  of  heaven  in  democracy  forsooth. 

The  masters  in  evil  of  false  ideas  shall  know, 
The  truth  o'ur  Lord  in  democracy  bestow; 

They  shall  be  ashamed  how  they  have  treated  man- 
kind 
When  evil  is  removed — no  longer  in  their  mind. 

Ecclesias  have  used  God's  word  in  shame, 

They  have  boldly  supported  you  in  evil  claim; 

The  power  o'er  the  humble  ones  to  be  your  slaves — 
Quite  to  the  contrary  God's  love  to  all  gave. 

Democracy  shall  remove  all  evil  strife, 

Man  shall  live  in  peace  throughout  his  life; 

He  shall  be  blessed  in  wisdom  of  God 
Forever  to  dwell  in  heaven's  abode. 

Plutocracy  shall  know  the  law  of  life  to  live 
They  shall  no  longer  man  their  viciousness  give; 

They  shall  deal  to  others  as  they  would  be  dealt  by, 
Their  very  existence  shall  in  justice  rely. 


"The  Earth's  Jubilee 


We  are  in  the  day  God  shall  save  the  nations, 
Establish  within  the  heart  of  man  the  true  creation; 

Remove  forever  the  power  of  evil  dearth 

The  day  of  restitution  is  here  to  bless  the  earth. 

Truth  shall  work  within  the  mind  of  man 
Revealing  to  all  the  Father's  glorious  plan; 

The  darkness  of  false  ideas  shall  be  removed, 
Its  evil  power  in  the  nations  be  destroyed. 

The  true  idealists  are  now  on  the  throne  of  love, 
Shall  lead  mankind  to  grace  and  truth  above; 

The  mind  of  the  Eternal  shall  bless  the  mind — 
Shall  teach  all  people  to  be  merciful  and  kind. 

The  overcoming  that  Jesus  did  while  here  on  earth, 
Is  the  very  means  for  us  to  remove  evil  dearth; 

To  be  the  means  for  all  to  enjoy  eternal  life, 
Far  from  the  reach  of  false  ideas'  strife. 

"Our  Father,"  who  is  our  very  being  in  love 
Shall  save  all  people  in  His  truth  above; 

Shall  save  the  nations  from  evil  fear, 

Shall  reveal  His  blessings  in  heavenly  cheer. 

Jesus  walked  the  path  of  life  here  below 

Revealed  the  blessings  He  shall  on  us  bestow; 

He  overcame,  as  we  must,  to  conquer  sin, 
Within  our  heart  the  power  of  truth  to  win. 

His  works,  His  words,  they  are  our  guide, 
In  Him  alone  to  win,  we  must  abide; 

His  very  presence  is  here  to  lead  us  all, 
Enjoy  the  blessings  of  the  Father's  call. 


THE   EARTH'S  JUBILEE  43 


We  cannot  turn  away  from  the  call  of  love, 
The  Father's  truth  is  with  us  to  remove — 

The  power  of  darkness  that  has  cursed  our  life, 
It  shall  remove  forever  the  false  ideas'  strife. 

Watch!  and  we  shall  know  the  power  within, 
That  shall  destroy  the  power  of  cruel  sin; 

Our  Father  within  us  in  wisdom,  grace  and  love, 
Shall  save  us  all  in  harmony  of  truth  above. 

The  nations  saved  to  dwell  forever  more, 
The  name  of  Jesus  they  shall  all  adore — 

They  shall  praise  Him  for  His  faithfulness, 
Who  lived  for  us  in  tEe  Father's  blessedness. 

He  lead  the  way  for  us,  Eternal  life  to  win, 
He  showed  us  how  to  conquer  the  power  of  sin; 

His  works  and  words  are  our  guide  while  here, 
That  shall  destroy  the  spirit  of  evil  fear. 

We  all  shall  live  to  love  and  bless 
The  true  ideas  of  life  we  shall  confess — 

The  fruits  of  love  shall  within  our  soul, 
Conform  our  being  to  the  heavenly  call. 


'Ye  Will  Not  Gome  Unto  Me 
that  Ye  Might  Have  Life" 

John  5:40 


Through  long  ages  man  has  suffered  from  strife, 
His  heart  is  lost  to  hope  of  eternal  life; 

Within  him  is  the  source  of  all  his  ills, 
In  false  ideas  his  life  with  error  fills. 

He  left  his  first  estate  of  love's  creation 

He  sought  his  own  ideas  that  brought  corruption — 

His  very  being  is  filled  with  evil  stain, 
His  days  are  those  of  sorrow,  grief  and  pain. 

When  born  into  the  world  man  as  babe  is  pure, 
"For  of  such  is  the  kingdom  of  heaven,"  assure; 

'Tis  the  mind  of  man  that  brings  the  woe, 
That  makes  of  him  the  truth  of  being  a  foe. 

The  false  ideas  form  within  that  leads  man  astray, 
That  removes  from  him  the  hope  in  truth  to  stay; 

He  schemes  through  life  with  others  of  same  mind, 
Between  them  they  are  at  sea  each  in  trouble  find. 

They  grope  along  in  darkness  full  of  fear, 

They  seek  in  their  surroundings  a  place  to  cheer; 

The  weaker  mind  the  greater  ones  abuse, 
Make  of  their  lives  in  slavery  to  use. 

This  is  the  fruit  of  false  ideas  misdeal — 
Develop  themselves  in  selfishness  with  zeal; 

That  cause  the  earth  today  being  filled  with  sin, 
With  evil  sword  the  nations  of  earth  to  win. 

Jesus,  our  Saviour,  while  here  in  life 

Foretold  to  us  of  such  evil  strife, 
Portrayed  to  us  the  viciousness  of  false  ideas — 

Who  also  showed  us  the  way  to  true  ideas. 


YE  WILL,  NOT   COME  UNTO   ME  45 


The  parable  of  the  Prodigal  Son  makes  it  clear, 
How  sin  of  false  ideas  fills  man  with  fear; 

Corrupt  his  being  that  once  was  love, 
A  cast  away  from  true  ideas  above. 

When  sin  did  work  within  there  came 
A  remorse  to  him  when  he  saw  his  evil  shame; 

He  remembered  his  tender  loving  days  of  youth, 
That  awakened  new  life  in  him  forsooth. 

He  found  himself  steeped  in  false  ideas  of  life— 
Within  him,  without  him,  naught  but  evil  strife; 

He  changed  his  mind,  "I  will  arise,"  and  rose, 
To  return  to  the  Father,  in  love  and  life  repose. 

This  is  the  condition  of  the  world  of  man  today, 
In  cruel  vicious  sin  his  families  all  doth  lay; 

The  power  of  reason  shall  be  given  soon  to  all, 
For  all  shall  return  to  the  Father's  heavenly  call. 

The  fruits  of  true  ideas  shall  be  restored  on  earth, 
Shall  remove  from  all  its  families  the  evil  dearth; 

Jesus  the  true  idealist  of  life  is  here 

To  restore  us  all  in  the  promised  heavenly  cheer. 

Mankind  has  begun  to  reason,  why  this  war? 

Why  the  earth  is  on  fire  in  autocracy's  lore; 
They  shall  find  that  in  false  ideas  it  is  done, 

The  power  over  the  nations  the  false  ecclesias  won. 

Democracy  the  true  ideas  of  life  of  heaven, 
Comes  down  to  earth  in  the  promise  given — 

Nations  shall  become  nations  of  the  Lord, 
Conform  their  laws  to  rule  in  love's  accord. 


46  YE  WILL  NOT  COME  UNTO  ME 


All  families  of  the  earth  shall  be  given, 

The  heart,  the  mind,  to  live  in  peace  of  heaven; 

Restored,  the  earth  shall  be  in  true  ideas, 
For  man  in  narrow  selfish  life  shall  cease. 

The  darkness  that  now  prevails  upon  the  earth, 
The  power  of  false  ideas  in  vicious  dearth — 

Shall  be  removed,  man  in  truth  shall  shine, 
For  all  shall  live  forever  in  love  divine. 

The  spirit  of  the  Father  shall  remove 
From  man  all  evil,  his  soul  to  be  in  love; 

No  longer  to  be  lost -in  power  of  cruel  strife, 
For  all  shall  live  in  harmony  of  eternal  life. 

This  is  the  fruit  of  true  ideas  the  earth  shall  share, 
Among  mankind  the  Father's  loving  tender  care; 

Prepare  the  minds  of  all  to  think  aright — 
Remove  for  aye  the  power  of  evil  might. 

The  great  war  here  on  earth  shall  do  away 
With  the  power  of  autocracy — no  longer  stay; 

The  false  ecclesias  with  their  cruel  creed, 
No  longer  find  lodgment  in  vicious  greed. 

Mankind  in  all  the  nations  shall  have  the  truth, 
Shall  live  to  enjoy  its  life  in  God,  forsooth; 

The  sufferings  of  mankind  has  been  great, 
The  fruits  of  evil  in  false  ideas  estate. 

The  teachings  of  Jesus  in  His  work  and  word 
Is  to  show  man  back  to  live  in  truth  accord; 

Repent  from  evil  ways  in  false  ideas, 
To  know  himself  from  error's  ways  to  cease. 


YE   WILL  NOT   COME   UNTO   ME  47 


Man  must  change  his  mind  from  error's  thought, 
Conform  his  life  to  the  truth  that  Jesus  taught — 

To  love  God  with  all  his  heart  and  mind, 
To  love  his  neighbor,  be  merciful  and  kind. 

To  hunger  and  thirst  for  truth  and  righteousness, 

To  be  meek  in  life  of  blessedness; 
This  is  the  power  that  love  of  God  shall  give, 

Power  of  truth  in  eternal  life  to  live. 

Man  no  longer  shall  fail  to  live  in  love, 
His  very  being  shall  be  one  in  truth  above; 

The  Father  shall  be  with  him,  is  the  promise  given, 
Restore  to  life  as  shown  in  the  Prodigal  son. 

False  ecclesias  rejected  the  truth  of  our  Lord, 
They  cast  away  the  blessings  of  His  word; 

They  choose  their  own  ideas  in  scheming  lore, 
That  is  the  cause  of  this  vile  autocracy's  war. 

Man  was  permitted  to  choose  his  life  to  live, 
Notwithstanding  the  promise  our  Lord  did  give; 

"Ye  will  not  come  unto  me  that  ye  might  have  life, 
They  choose  rather  their  own  ideas  in  evil  strife. 

The  masses  of  mankind  is  not  so  much  to  blame, 
It  is  the  false  ecclesias  that  has  brought  the  shame; 

Autocracy,  aristocracy,  plutocracy  received  their  life, 
In  their  scheming  false  ideas  in  vicious  strife. 

These  are  the  ones  the  Lord  shall  remove  from  earth, 
No  longer  shall  they  deceive  the  nations  in  evil 
dearth; 

Their  heart  of  stone  shall  be  made  a  heart  of  love, 
Their  life  conformed  to  truth  of  heaven  above. 


The  True  Idealist's  Hope 


When  I  seek  the  path  of  wisdom, 

In  my  Saviour's  loving  word, 
There  I  see  the  heavenly  kingdom, 

Grace  to  live  in  truth's  accord; 
In  his  spirit  I  am  strengthened 

To  o'er  come  all  evil  snare, 
In  the  power  of  truth  awakened, 

That  removes  all  fear  and  care. 

True  and  faithful  is  my  Saviour 

When  I  call  His  name  to  me, 
He  doth  guide  me  in  heavenly  favor, 

Precious  truth  of  God  to  see; 
Glorious  plan  to  save  the  nations, 

Conquer  power  of  evil  snare; 
Showing  forth  the  true  creation, 

All  mankind  its  blessings  share. 

Who  hath  promised  earth  the  blessings, 

That  shall  make  all  terrors  cease; 
Destroy  autocracy's  cursing, 

Heavenly  truth  mankind  to  seize. 
These  are  times  of  restitution 

Prom  all  power  of  error's  might, 
Man  shall  know  his  true  creation, 

He  shall  walk  in  love  and  light. 

Come,  O,  blessed  consolation, 

See  the  earth  is  sore  distressed, 
See  the  power  of  false  creation — 

How  the  people  are  depressed; 
Nothing  can  relieve  the  cursing 

Of  autocracy's  wicked  lore, 
Nothing  but  thy  love  and  blessings 

Can  remove  this  cruel  war. 


"The  Soul  of  Man3 


Calm  is  our  life  when  we  abide 
In  the  truth  that's  taught  by  Jesus, 
There  is  nothing  in  this  life  beside, 
That  can  peace  and  blessings  bring  us. 
He  is  our  way  to  immortal  life, 
Where  spirit  of  wisdom  dwelleth; 
Removes  from  us  all  evil  strife, 
Whose  soul  in  Him  abideth. 

The  soul  of  man  is  all  he  has 
That  brings  him  any  blessings, 
The  soul  of  Jesus  shall  compass 
The  dross  of  life  removing; 
The  body  it  is  frail  to  meet — 
Is  weak  through  condemnation, 
Without  the  soul  is  not  complete, 
Is  minus  of  true  creation. 

The  purpose  of  our  Saviour's  life, 
Is  to  make  known  the  blessing, 
Without  the  soul  we  are  in  strife 
And  fraught  with  evil  cursing; 
He  spoke  the  words  of  life  to  all, 
The  Father's  great  salvation 
Who  alone  awakes  the  soul, 
Removes  sin's  condemnation. 

The  soul  awakens  when  it  hears 

The  voice  of  true  creation, 

The  false  with  all  its  evil  fears 

Shall  in  it  find  destruction. 

The  thought  of  truth  shall  guide  our  way, 

Our  mind  and  soul  awakening, 

The  body  shall  in  truth's  array, 

Be  restored  in  recreating. 


'Ye  Shall  Know  the  Truth" 

— Je*** 

The  world  is  full  of  sadness, 

The  work  of  evil  mind 
They  know  not  truth  that  blesses, 

No  light  to  guide  can  find; 
They  seek  not  truth  of  Jesus, 

On  traditions  they  rely, 
They  refuse  the  light  He  gave  us, 

The  truth  of  God  deny. 

To  know  the  words  of  Jesus 

Is  light  to  our  patkway  here, 
They  are  the  means  to  bless  us 

They  cast  away  all  fear; 
His  truth  shall   bring  us  freedom 

From  the  snares  of  false  ideas, 
The  fruit  of  heavenly  kingdom, 

Is  found  in  true  ideas. 

"Ye  shall  know  the  truth," 

The  Lord  of  Love  declared, 
The  families  of  the  earth  forsooth 

Shall  share  the  feast  prepared; 
"The  truth  shall  make  you  free," 

These  are  the  words  of  life, 
The  nations  of  the  earth  to  be 

Relieved  of  cruel  strife. 

The  words  and  works  of  Jesus 

Will  lift  mankind  in  love, 
He  has  promised  He  will  bless  us, 

With  wisdom  from  above; 
The  earth,  now  lost  in  darkness, 

Shall  have  the  light  of  day, 
Restore  us  all  in  sweetness, 

Made  free  to  love  alway. 


50 


"He  That  Overcometh' 


To  him  that  overcometh  false  ideas  of  life, 

Shall  have  power  to  be  immune  from  evil  strife; 

He  shall  know  the  truth  in  the  paradise  of  God, 
And  dwell  in  everlasting  life  in  love's  abode. 

He  that  overcometh  shall  not  be  hurt  of  death, 
He  shall  be  saved  from  the  power  of  evil  wrath; 

His  mind  and  soul  shall  be  saved  in  true  creation — 
No  longer  subject  to  evil  condemnation. 

To  him  that  overcometh  shall  eat  of  the  tree  of  life, 
No  longer  shall  he  suffer  hunger  in  false  ideas' 
strife; 

The  name  of  Christ,  of  God,  to  him  shall  be  given, 
This  is  for  all  who  enter  true  ideas  of  heaven. 

To  him  that  overcometh  shall  be  given  to  rule  the 
nations, 

Power  to  bless  mankind  in  re-creation; 
His  very  being  shall  shine  as  the  morning  star, 

Shall  enter  the  gates  of  truth  that's  now  ajar. 

To  him  that  overcometh  shall  be  clothed  in  white 

His  very  being  shall  be  full  of  light; 
He  shall  lead  mankind  in  the  Saviour's  name, 

Remove  from  earth  the  power  of  evil  shame. 

He  that  overcometh  shall  own  the  Father's  love — 
One   with   the   Saviour  in  the   blessings   of  truth 
above ; 

He  shall  have  power  to  write  the  new  name  on  all, 
Who  enters  into  true  ideas  in  heavenly  call. 


52  "HE    THAT    OVERCOMETH" 


To  him  that  overcometh  shall  be  blessed  in  life  and 

love, 

Upon  the  throne  of  truth  and  wisdom  from  above; 
The  families  of  the  earth  shall  know  the  Lord  is  here 
Those  in  true  ideas  give  blessings  their  heart  to 
cheer. 


The  fruits  of  love  in  true  ideas  of  life, 

Shall  heal  those  who  suffer  from  evil  strife; 

On  the  throne  in  glorious  life  shall  people  all 
Be  blest  in  love  and  life  of  heavenly  call. 

"As  I  have  overcome"  our  Saviour  He  is  our  life  and 
love, 

Who  walked  through  life  in  truth  of  heaven  above; 
His  very  life  and  love  is  ours  always  here — 

This  is  the  power  to  banish  false  idea's  fear. 


To  reign  with  him  upon  the  throne  of  love, 
To  lead  mankind  in  harmony  with  truth  above- 

This  is  the  promised  place  for  all  to  be 
Who  overcome  the  power  of  false  idea. 

"As  I  have  overcome"  so  shall  the  faithful  be, 
A  mighty  power  of  the  Father's  love  to  see; 

Remove  the  darkness  from  all  upon  the  earth, 
Remove  forever  the  power  of  evil  dearth. 

"As  I  am  sat  with  my  Father,"  so  shall  ye  be, 
Restore  the  nations  of  the  earth  in  liberty; 

Make  plain  the  paths  to  nations  of  mankind 
Make  plain  the  Father's  gracious  loving  mind. 


'The  Kingdom  of  God  is 
Within  You" 


Without  is  the  turmoil  of  evil  strife, 

Within  is  the  peace  of  God, 
Without  is  the  source  of  mortal  life, 

Within  is  the  true  life's  abode; 
This  is  the  source  of  our  being  to  live 

In  the  principle  of  life  within, 
That  the  Father  created  and  freely  give, 

To  overcome  darkness  of  sin. 

Without  is  the  source  of  mortal  strife, 

Within  is  the  power  of  love; 
Without  man  lives  a  mortal  life — 

Within  he  is  one  from  above. 
"The  Father  and  I  are  one"  to  shine 

In  the  world  the  Truth  to  show, 
Immortal  and  glorious  in  life  divine, 

In  wisdom  and  love  to  grow. 

The  true  ideas  are  the  words  of  life 

That  Jesus  spoke  in  His  day, 
Made  known  to  the  disciples  of  evil  strife, 

From  their  heart  to  cast  away; 
I  am  the  way  to  the  mysteries  within, 

Of  love  the  Father  gave, 
Abide  in  Me  and  thou  shalt  win, 

The  way  your  soul  to  save. 

Within  the  Lord  was  the  power  divine, 

That  did  the  work  of  love, 
To  remove  the  darkness  in  truth  to  shine — 

Be  one  with  the  Father  above. 
In  secret  place,  our  Father  within, 

The  source  of  life  to  live 
Makes  whole  our  life,  remove  all  sin, 

An  immortal  name  to  give.

That  can  satisfy  us  here, 
To  abide  in  Him,  His  promise  own, 

Will  bring  us  heavenly  cheer.

The  Power  of  Love  is  Greater 
than  Power  of  Evil 


Why  should  we  fear  the  evil,

In  the  heart  of  false  idealists, 

It  forms  its  power  of  hate, 
In  selfish  schemes  is  amidst,

Are  one  in  zeal  and  love, 
The  blessings  of  heaven  the  earth  shall  own 

In  the  true  ideas  above. 

Democracy  is  the  means  to  inspire 

To  righteous  way  of  living, 
It  has  the  power  to  remove  the  fire 

Of  war  that's  now  existing; 
The  spirit  of  our  Father  shall  guide 

Democracy  to  win  this  war, 
No  longer  the  nations  in  evil  abide, 

Its  fruits  to  be  no  more. 

The  fierce  battle's  to  be  fought, 

Make  sure  to  win  the  day, 
Shall  bring  autocracy  to  naught 

Its  evil  cast  away;

— Paul 


For  us  to  live  is  the  Christ  of  God,

In  world  of  darkness  here  to  shine;

Who  was  faithful  to  all  in  truth's  abode, 

Redemption  our  life  did  give;

By  His  works  of  love  performed, 
Abide  in  Him  we  shall  accord, 

Our  mind  to  be  reformed. 

For  us  to  live  in  Christ  of  God

Is  the  means  to  live  in  truth's  abode, 

To  conquer  evil  strife;

Away  from  false  ideas'  strife, 

The  heavenly  blessings  win; 
This  victory  is  for  all  the  world 

Of  mankind  soon  to  be, 
The  flag  of  liberty  is  now  unfurled, 

Its  light  of  truth  to  see. 

The  life  of  Christ  shall  be  in  all 

The  families  of  the  earth, 
The  nations  shall  in  heavenly  call, 

Remove  autocracy's  dearth; 
This  was  the  mission  of  our  Lord, 

Who  taught  us  words  of  life, 
Was  faithful  in  the  Father's  word, 

To  conquer  evil  strife.

Is  but  the  means  to  aspire, 
To  conquer  false  idealists'  dearth, 

In  truth  that  shall  inspire; 
To  live  the  life  of  Christ  is  due, 

For  us  on  earth  to  attain, 
No  longer  evil  shall  accrue, 

No  longer  its  power  remain. 


"Prince  of  Peace1 


Jesus  Christ  is  our  Father's  Prince  of  Peace, 
He'll  teach  all  nations  false  ideas  to  cease; 

He  will  establish  in  the  hearts  of  statesmen  all 
The  power  to  conquer  autocracy's  vicious  call. 

His  spirit  tells  us  "there  shall  be  no  more 
On  earth  the  false  ideas'  cruel  wicked  war;" 

He'll  teach  mankind  the  way  of  true  ideas, 
No  more  be  slaves  to  anti-Christ's  false  ideas. 

When  here  on  earth  He  taught  us  ways  to  life, 
He  showed  us  how  to  overcome  evil  strife 

By  the  guidance  of  His  spirit  we  shall  win, 
No  more  be  subject  to  false  ideas  sin. 

He  that  lifteth  up  the  sword  must  be, 
Killed  by  the  sword,  no  more  in  cruelty; 

Of  false  idealist,  no  longer  shall  it  mar  the  earth, 
The  truth  that  Jesus  taught  shall  remove  its  dearth. 

He  will  prepare  the  nations  for  His  love  and  life,

FRINGE    OF    PEACE  67 


Dark  is  the  night  before  us,  fierce  the  storm, 
To  overcome  all  evil  our  heart  in  truth  to  form; 

Fierce  the  struggle  in  the  nations  of  the  earth 
To  remove  forever  autocracy's  cruel  dearth. 

Our  Saviour  He  will  speak  peace  to  all, 

He  will  direct  our  mind  away  from  error's  fall; 

His  purpose  is  to  raise  all  mankind  to  life, 
Remove  forever  the  cause  of  evil  strife. 

The  sooner  we  shall  seek  Him  this  dark  night, 
The  sooner  shall  we  be  blest  in  His  glorious  light; 

The  sooner  we  shall  enjoy  the  peace  of  heaven, 
As  promised  by  Our  Father,  to  Jesus  given. 

The  mind  of  the  Eternal  is  the  mind  of  Jesus  Christ 
That  removes  the  false  traditions  of  anti-Christ; 

The  mind  of  God  is  our  very  being  to  live, 
Through  the  mind  He  will  of  His  wisdom  give. 

This  is  the  power  of  Jesus,  earth's  Prince  of  Peace, 
Who  will  cause  the  power  of  evil  forever  to  cease; 

Who  will  lift  mankind  up  from  error's  ways, 
Who  will  crown  us  all  with  glory  all  our  days.

Forever  false  ideas'  power  to  cease. 

The  power  of  anti-Christ  shall  be  destroyed, 
No  longer  the  nations  shall  be  employed; 

To  hurt  the  families  of  the  earth, 
No  longer  work  its  evil  dearth. 

The  peace  of  God  is  now  on  earth, 
Establish  the  nations  in  heavenly  mirth; 

Restore  mankind  to  love  and  life, 
No  longer  be  subject  to  evil  strife.

Fulfill  the  promise  the  Father  gave. 

Mankind  shall  hear  the  Saviour's  voice, 
In  truth  of  being  they  shall  rejoice! 

Make  glad  all  families  of  the  earth, 
Remove  from  all  evil  dearth. 


"Fight  the  Good  Fight " 


Man  must  fight  the  false  ideas  creation, 
Remove  its  curse  to  obtain  salvation; 

Man  chose  the  false  ideas  of  life, 
That  has  fostered  in  the  nations  in  evil  strife. 

Our  heavenly  Father  in  the  power  of  his  might, 
Bestows  upon  the  nations  truth  and  right; 

He  will  establish  in  the  heart  of  man 
His  spirit  of  love,  fulfill  His  glorious  plan. 

The  cleansing  of  the  nation  is  the  Father's  will, 
To  all  its  families  His  promise  to  fulfill; 

Remove  from  earth  all  false  ideas  of  life — 
Bless  all  the  people,  remove  the  evil  strife. 

The  Father  shall  save  the  families  of  mankind, 
In  all  the  nations  the  heavenly  blessing  find; 

The  laws  of  love  and  life  shall  be  their  guide 
Forever  more  in  wisdom  and  grace  abide. 

No  false  ideas  can  longer  interfere, 
To  fill  the  earth  with  schemes  in  evil  fear; 

The  light  of  truth  in  the  Father's  love 

Shall  from  our  midst  all  error  thoughts  remove. 

The  promised  blessing  to  mankind  is  here, 
Our  Father  calls  the  nations  in  heavenly  cheer — 

The  works  and  words  of  Jesus  are  our  light, 
By  the  sword  of  democracy  shall  remove  the  night. 

The  truth  of  Jesus  shall  be  in  our  heart, 

The  power  of  evil  shall  no  longer  have  a  part; 

The  nations  be  governed  in  truth  and  light — 
No  longer  shall  autocracy  work  its  vicious  might. 


FIGHT  THE  GOOD  FIGHT  71 


Statesmen  and  rulers  of  the  nations 

Shall  be  established  in  the  true  creation; 

Believing  all  men  are  born  equal  to  live, 
Each  other  the  blessings  of  truth  to  give. 

Behold  the  wondrous  work  the  Father  is  now  doing, 
Removing  from  our  midst  all  evil  scheming; 

Make  known  to  nations  of  the  earth  its  plight, 
Result  of  false  ideas  evil  might. 

Man  must  remove  this  cruel  power  of  sin 
From  their  midst  heaven's  blessed  truth  to  win; 

Must  conform  to  the  laws  of  love  and  life, 
Forever  banish  autocracy's  cruel  strife. 

The  army  of  democracy  shall  be  sustained, 

To  remove  the  evil  that  the  world  has  stained; 

With  peace  and  love  its  fruit  of  victory  shall 
In  all  the  nations  save  their  families  all. 

Man  shall  conquer  power  of  false  creation, 
Shall  be  blessed  in  truth's  salvation; 

The  promise  gift  that  Jesus  told  while  here — 
Grace  of  Our  Father  within  us  all  to  cheer. 


"Gome  Unto  Me  All  Ye  that 
Labour " 


When  Jesus  spoke  these  words  of  cheer 
He  found  mankind  was  lost  in  fear, 

The  fruits  of  false  ideas  in  life, 
Gave  forth  its  power  in  evil  strife. 

The  scribes  and  pharasees  in  evil  shame, 
In  religious  power  of  truth,  they  claim — 

Made  hard  the  life  of  those  they  ruled, 
The  masses  of  mankind  they  fooled. 

Jesus  showed  the  world  the  cruel  sin, 
The  scribes  and  pharasees  were  in; 

That  far  from  God  and  truth  they  were, 
No  blessings  of  heaven  in  life  did  share. 

The  false  ecclesias  of  this  day, 

In  traditions  errors  through  life  they  stay; 
They  claim  the  teachings  of  truth  and  life, 

Instead  their  lives  are  full  of  strife. 

The  truth  of  God  as  Jesus  taught 

Shows  those  who  are  in  error's  thought; 

Directs  us  from  such  evil  snare, 
To  have  no  part  their  teachings  share. 

Come  unto  me  all  ye  that  labour, 
To  Him  alone  we  must  gather; 

His  presence  here  on  earth  today 
Shall  give  us  rest  our  heart  to  stay. 


"COME  UNTO  ME  ALL  YE  THAT  LABOUR       73 


Rest  comes  to  all  In  true  ideas  of  life, 
As  taught  by  Jesus  who  in  truth  was  rife; 

The  power  of  love  within  our  heart 
Guides  us  from  error  thoughts  to  part. 

His  Father's  love  is  the  truth  of  being 
To  those  in  Jesus  now  believing; 

He  is  here  on  earth  to  save  mankind, 
Conform  the  nations  in  the  Father's  mind. 

He  has  the  power  to  cancel  sin, 

The  true  ideas  of  life  in  him  shall  win— 

All  people  of  the  earth  shall  find, 
Rest  for  all  their  troubled  mind. 

*'Come  unto  me"  is  meant  for  all 
Who  are  troubled  in  false  ideas'  fall; 

A  sweet  refreshing  rest  shall  give 

He'll  teach  mankind  true  ways  to  live. 

That  is  the  mission  of  our  Lord, 
That  is  the  work  in  truth  accord; 

Restore  mankind  in  peace  to  live, 
The  heavenly  rest  to  all  shall  give. 

His  presence  it  is  with  us  now  to  give 
The  nations  rest  in  true  ideas  to  live; 

To  bless  the  families  of  the  earth, 
Remove  from  all  the  evil  dearth.

"Secret  of  Truth' 


Secret  of  truth  comes  to  those 

Who  seek  the  Saviour's  word, 
The  true  ideas  in  life  they  choose, 

They  live  in  love's  accord; 
Traditions  of  men,  they  forsake 

In  the  vine  of  truth  remain, 
The  Saviour's  life  they  now  partake, 

That  removes  all  evil  stain. 

This  is  the  promise  our  Saviour  gave, 

His  spirit  shall  lead  us  on 
From  false  ideas  of  life  to  save, 

With  Him  and  His  Father  at-one; 
No  power  of  darkness  can  dismay

They  daily  walk  with  God;

"Our  President's  Message  to 
Congress  "  Apm  2nd,  1917. 


The  message  to  congress  our  president  gave, 

Bears  truth  of  love  and  life, 
From  power  of  autocracy  our  nation  to  save 

Remove  its  cruel  strife; 
This  vile  menace  has  drawn  the  sword 

To  conquer  all  the  earth, 
With  hellish  means  it  doth  accord, 

To  spread  its  evil  dearth. 

Our  noble  nation  shall  withstand 

This  cruel  enemy  of  man, 
The  power  of  democracy  shall  command, 

In  the  Father's  glorious  plan; 
The  nations  saved  in  truth  and  light  — 

The  promise  the  Father  gave, 
That  shall  remove  from  earth  the  night, 

Its  families  all  to  save.

To  bring  the  nations  peace, 
Destroy  autocracy  from  the  world 

Its  power  of  evil  cease  —

All  nations  to  restore, 
That  brings  to  man  the  glorious  day, 

His  life  with  peace  adore. 

The  nations  of  the  allies  shall  fight 

Till  the  victory  is  won, 
Democracy  is  the  power  of  might, 

For  each  and  every  one; 
Our  president  with  clear  mind 

Directs  us  on  our  way, 
Eternal  truth  of  heaven  to  find, 

Its  peace  on  earth  to  stay. 


80     OUR  PRESIDENT'S  MESSAGE  TO  CONGRESS 


Our  nation's  force  is  awakened, 

Its  flag  is  now  unfurled, 
Its  army  in  truth  is  strengthened, 

To  save  the  wounded  world; 
They  hear  the  voice  of  freedom 

In  liberty's  truth  and  light 
To  bless  with  heavenly  wisdom, 

Remove  autocracy's  might. 

The  old  world  now  is  passing, 

The  new  is  here  to  stay, 
Autocracy  with  its  scheming 

Forever  to  pass  away; 
The  people's  voice  is  the  voice  of  God, 

In  truth  to  rule  the  earth 
Shall  dwell  in  peace  in  heaven's  abode, 

Made  free  of  autocracy's  dearth. 


The  promised  restoration 

Has  come,  the  nation's  all, 
Are  led  by  inspiration 

The  way  of  peace  to  call; 
Remove  the   night  of  sorrow, 

Bring  forth  the  blessed  day, 
The  nation's  all  to  follow, 

The  light  of  truth  to  stay. 

Our  nation  is  the  vanguard 

To  crush  from  off  the  earth, 
True  liberty  its  worth  regard, 

To  vanquish  slavery's  dearth; 
Onward,  on  to  victory, 

Truth's  might  is  our  shield, 
Restore  on  earth  heaven's  harmony, 

Sweet  liberty's  life  to  yield. 


"Peace  of  God  is  Free  to  All" 


Peace  of  God  is  free  to  all 

It  passeth  understanding 
Of  false  idealists'  vicious  call, 

It  brings  life  everlasting; 
The  peace  that  Jesus  taught  in  life, 

Is  power  of  truth  and  love 
That  shall  destroy  all  evil  strife, 

Its  deception  to  remove. 

My  peace  I  give,  to  all  mankind, 

I  AM,  is  the  meaning  of  our  Lord, 
It  is  the  power  for  all  to  live 

In  true  ideas  accord; 
No  anti-Christ  knows  God's  peace, 

They  are  lost  in  false  tradition 
The  fruit  of  strife  through  life  they  seize, 

That  brings  them  condemnation. 

The  peace  of  God  shall  bring  us  rest, 

Not  as  the  world  now  giveth, 
In  spirit  of  truth  all  shall  be  blest — 

A  promise  to  all  that  loveth; 
In  truth  of  God  we  shall  attain 

The  power  of  peace  within, 
That  shall  remove  all  evil  stain, 

Eternal  life  to  win. 

We  part  from  peace  of  God  this  life, 

When  we  seek  our  own  ideas, 
That  fills  us  with  cruel  vicious  strife 

That's  enmity  to  true  ideas; 
We  loose  the  power  of  the  Father's  love, 

In  anti-Christ  believing, 
Are  far  from  prospects  of  peace  above, 

Its  fruits  of  love  receiving. 


"Carnal  Mind  is  Enmity  Against 
God" 


In  false  ideas  of  mind  evil  is  sustained 

That  drives  away  the  very  truth  of  God, 
Carnal  nature  with  us  is  maintained 

When  we  dwell  in  anti-Christ  abode; 
To  cast  away  the  evil,  we  must  atone 

In  the  works  and  words  of  truth  beliere, 
As  taught  by  Jesus,  seek  him  alone, 

For  us  its  power  of  life  receive. 

Carnal  nature  dominates  man  through  life, 

When  he  chooses  his  evil  ways  to  live, 
It  brings  him  sorrows  in  vicious  strife 

When  his  heart  to  sensuous  thoughts  doth  give; 
The  promise  mind  of  truth  in  Jesus'  word, 

Is  far  from  those  in  sensuous  sin, 
Their  very  being  do  not  accord, 

The  promise  blessings  God's  peace  to  win. 

To  cast  away  the  false  ideas  we  must, 

To  obtain  the  promise  blessings  due  to  man 
The  light  of  truth  within  shall  remove  the  lust, 

In  the  promise  gift  in  the  Father's  plan; 
Bring  blessings  to  all  the  people  of  the  earth, 

This  is  the  promise  now  fulfilled  to  all, 
That  shall  remove  the  carnal  nature's  dearth, 

Our  Father's  purpose  in  the  heavenly  call. 

"Abide  in  me"  are  the  living  words  to  note, 

That  Jesus  spoke  that  brings  man  to  life — 
To  cast  away  the  mind  in  traditions  thought, 

That'll  remove  from  all  the  evil  strife; 
"Abide  in  me,"  those  loving  words  of  Jesus 

They  shall  make  us  clean  of  carnal  mind, 
Shall  restore  the  power  of  life  within  us, 

Shall  establish  our  thoughts  in  the  Father's  mind 


"Christian  Pacifist" 

Man  who  fails  to  see  his  duty  in  this  war 

Who  stands  by  unconcerned  who  shall  win, 
Who  sees  no  evil  in  autocracy's  wicked  lore, 

Such  an  one  is  benighted  in  false  ideas  is  in; 
Religion  in  this  life  will  avail  us  none 

If  we  fail  to  see  the  promises  God  has  given, 
To  restore  the  nations  in  truth  to  lean  upon, 

Restore  mankind  in  light  of  truth  of  heaven. 

God  has  purposed  to  bestow  His  life  and  love, 

He  wills  that  truth  for  man  shall  rule  on  earth- 
He  wills  to  bless  the  nations  in  truth  above, 

Restore  its  families  from  the  power  of  evil  dearth; 
Jesus  told  us  of  the  conflict  in  this  our  day  we  see, 

He  told  us  of  the  power  of  evil  that  would  fill  the 

earth, 

And  promised  that  the  nations  from  its  power  shall 
be  free, 

Its  families  blest  in  the  spirit  of  rebirth. 

Are  we  to  expect  some  miraculous  power? 

To  restore  the  earth  from  the  viciousness  of  sin— 
The  nations  in  heavenly  blessings  gather, 

Some  power  outside  of  man  the  evil  power  to  win; 
"The  kingdom  of  heaven  is  within  you,"  Jesus  said, 

And  those  in  true  ideas  these  truths  now  see — 
Within,  the  heart  of  man  the  power  is  made, 

To  fight  the  evil,  heaven  on  earth  to  be. 

In  false  ideas  of  mind  autocracy  made  its  power, 

Developed  through  anti-Christ  in  vicious  lore 
The  sword  is  drawn  by  them  the  earth  to  conquer, 

Which  is  the  cause  of  this  vicious,  cruel  war; 
Those  who  love  God  with  all  their  heart  and  mind, 

Shall  know  the  power  to  conquer  evil  is  within, 
Their  very  being  is  governed  in  truth's  command, 

From  power  of  evil  the  nations  of  the  earth  to  win. 


84  CHRISTIAN  PACIFIST 


"He  that  lifteth  up  the  sword,"  God's  spirit  foretold, 

"Must  be   killed    by   the   sword,"   by    whom   such 

power? 
By  all  who  love  truth  in  democracy's  precious  fold, 

Through  it  our  Father  shall  the  nations  gather; 
For  us  to  stand  by,  let  the  enemy  proceed 

To  make  the  nations  of  the  earth  all  its  own, 
In  the  truth  of  our  Father  we  shall  not  succeed 

Nor  the  blessings  of  life  our  Saviour  has  shown. 

This  is  important  for  us  now  to  know 

That  the  Father's  works  His  love  from  within, 
And  those  who  have  sought  in  wisdom  to  grow 

Shall  know  in  democracy  we  shall  win; 
It  is  the  means  our  Father  shall  give 

To  awaken  all  the  families  of  mankind, 
In  wisdom,  in  grace,  in  love  all  shall  live, 

This  is  democracy's  fruits  in  the  mind. 

It  is  through  the  nations  our  Father  shall  work 

To  bless  all  the  families  of  the  earth, 
Not  through  organizations  where  evil  doth  lurk 

Shall  remove  false  ideas  evil  dearth; 
In  anti-Christ  the  world  has  suffered  from  sin, 

Through  it  man  has  left  the  truth  of  God — 
They  who  claim  to  have  salvation  man  to  win, 

Has  no  salvation  who  are  in  false  ideas  abode. 

Failing  to  see  that  democracy  is  true  life, 

Is  a  sign  we  are  in  false  idea's  sin — 
The  sword  of  democracy  shall  remove  the  evil  strife, 

Of  autocracy's  destructive  power  within; 
The  nations  in  democracy  is  the  salvation  of  man, 

God's  spirit  of  truth  is  its  guide, 
Fulfilling  the  promise  of  His  glorious  plan 

For  man  in  true  ideas  to  abide. 


"Socialism" 


Socialism  in  truth  shall  govern  the  mind, 
To  bless  in  wisdom  true  love  here  to  find; 

Socialism  in  false  ideas  of  life 
Brings  to  mankind  the  power  of  cruel  strife. 

Our  Saviour,  a  socialist,  gave  to  the  earth 

The  power  of  wisdom  to  remove  evil  dearth; 

He  taught  us  the  way  to  blessings  of  life 
That  removes  from  our  midst  all  evil  strife. 

To  be  a  true  socialist,  love's  fruit  must  be  given, 
Our  mind  must  conform  to  the  Father  in  heaven; 

This  is  the  way  for  mankind  to  be  blest — 
This  is  the  way  to  be  in  eternal  rest. 

The  words  of  our  Saviour  are  the  guide  to  our  mind, 
The  true  ways  of  living  for  all  here  to  find; 

It  shall  remove  autocracy's  vile  power 

The  nations  of  earth  in  peace  here  to  gather. 

It  shall  remove  aristocracy's  vile  scheme, 
It  shall  destroy  plutocracy's  evil  theme; 

No  longer  their  viciousness  have  power  on  earth 
To  mar  the  true  socialist  born  in  rebirth. 

True  socialists  live  in  the  power  of  love, 
Their  mind  conformed  in  wisdom  above; 

They  shall  fight  to  destroy  all  power  of  sin, 
The  nations  of  earth  true  life  here  to  win. 

They  shall  not  wrangle  as  the  false  socialists  are, 
They  shall  fight  to  remove  autocracy's  war; 

They  shall  align  themselves  in  the  mind  of  the  Lord 
Their  life  shall  conform  in  wisdom's  accord. 


8G  "SOCIALISM" 


Their  fruit  shall  bring  peace  in  the  nations  of  earth 
When  they  have  destroyed  autocracy's  dearth; 

This  is  the  purpose  of  the  war  of  today — 

To  bring  to  the  nations  heaven's  peace  here  to  stay. 

The  socialists  who  wrangle  in  vicious  lore, 
Give  aid  to  the  enemy  in  autocracy's  war; 

His  mind  is  benighted,  in  venom  he  lives, 
His  actions  are  evil — the  fruit  he  now  gives. 

There  can  be  no  neutrality  in  this  cruel  war, 
In  the  evil  autocracy  who  sheds  human  gore; 

Ashamed  we  should  be  to  hold  such  a  mind 
As  some  false  socialists  in  the  nations  we  find. 

Democracy  is  the  mind  of  our  Father  in  Heaven, 
In   democracy  is  the   promise  of  peace  that   was 
given; 

To  bless  all  the  families  of  earth  with  His  love, 
Create  in  the  nations  true  harmony  above. 

A  principle  of  life  we  are  righting  for  here 

In  wisdom  and  grace  of  our  Father  to  adhere; 

Autocracy  has  no  power  such  life  here  to  give — 
The  vilest  of  nature  is  the  power  they  now  live. 

Down  with  the  tyrants,  must  be  the  cry  of  us  all — 
Up  with  the  nations  in  democracy's  call; 

Prepare  for  mankind  in  heavenly  peace, 
Vile  nature  from  our  midst  forever  to  cease. 


"To  Make  the  World  Safe  for 
Democracy" 


The  nations  shall  know  Thee,  our  Father, 
Shall  know  that  Thou  art  our  life — 
That  Thou  will  its  people  gather 
Away  from  autocracy's  strife; 

The  world  that  is  now  on  fire 
Is  the  work  of  its  evil  shame, 

Is  created  through  selfish  desire — 
The  governments  of  earth  they  now  claim. 

The  nations  of  earth  they  now  suffer 

From  the  power  of  autocracy's  sin, 
In  fruits  of  false  ideas  they  gather, 

That  errors  of  life  doth  win; 
To  those  that  abide  in  the  Saviour, 

They  shall  walk  in  the  newness  of  life — 
The  nations  soon  they  shall  gather 

To  win  o'er  autocracy's  strife. 

Thou  callest  the  nations  to  banish, 

Selfishness  all  from  the  earth 
Thou  wilt  cause  all  its  power  to  vanish, 

From  their  midst  all  its  dearth; 
'Tis  Thy  love  and  truth  that  shall  conquer 

The  power  of  autocracy's  strife, 
'Tis  Thy  love  alone  that  shall  gather 

The  nations  in  democracy's  life. 

Thy  spirit  of  truth  is  now  working 

In  the  hearts  of  those  who  abide 
In  wisdom  and  grace  now  proclaiming, 

To  remove  all  error  aside; 
To  make  the  world  safe  for  democracy, 

In  liberty  the  nations  to  stand, 
United  to  destroy  autocracy, 

Its  power  of  evil  to  withstand.

To  bless  us  all  here  on  earth 
Sustain  us  by  grace  to  be  faithful, 

Remove  from  all  evil  dearth. 


"To  France" 


(Dedicated  to  our  brave  boys) 
To  Prance  our  brave  boys  are  marching, 
With  hearts  firm  and  true  as  they  go, 
With  "Old  Glory"  proudly  waving, 
That  sets  our  hearts  all  aglow. 
To  France  our  soldiers  are  marching, 
There  to  meet  man's  cruelest  foe, 
That  makes  hell  on  earth  most  appalling! 
To  fight  for  world's  freedom  they  go. 

To  France,  the  earth's  noble  nation, 
Who  has  suffered  these  many  years, 
At  the  hands  of  a  false  creation — 
Of  might,  that  kills  without  fear. 
To  France,  where  the  fiercest  fighting 
The  earth  in  all  ages  has  known, 
Our  boys  with  courage  are  marching, 
With  Old  Glory  more  glory  to  own. 

To  France  our  brave  boys  are  marching, 
To  France,  our  own  dearest  friend, 
Once  her  boys  in  our  army  lay  bleeding, 
And  dying  in  liberty's  wend. 
This  is  our  time  to  give  comfort, 
To  give  victory  over  her  foes, 
Our  boys,  our  flag  are  her  consort — 
To  remove  forever  her  woes. 

In  France  our  brave  boys  are  marching, 
The  army  that  knows  no  retreat, 
That  heeds  sweet  liberty  calling, 
Bring  terrors  of  might  to  defeat. 
To  make  the  world  safe  for  democracy, 
Our  flag  is  in  France  now  unfurled, 
And  so  shall  remain  till  victory 
Shall  bless  with  freedom  the  world.

In  France  our  brave  boys  are  fighting, 
In  France  with  Old  Glory  unfurled — 
To  rescue  the  nations  that's  bleeding, 
To  remove  war's  curse  from  the  world. 
The  arm  of  the  Lord  it  shall  comfort—

With  victory,  in  liberty  to  stand.

That  is  why  our  boys  you  call  "Sammy" 
Are  with  you  with  Old  Glory  unfurled. 


"Why  Should  I  Fear?" 


Why  should  I  fear  though  the  world  turn  against  me 
Father,  since  thou  has  clothed  me  in  wisdom  divine 

What  in  the  world  can  derange  my  heart  from  Thee, 
Since  Thou  hast  purpose  me  in  love  to  be  Thine. 

Father,  Thy  mercy  is  ever  around  me, 

Keeping  me  safe  to  serve  Thee  this  night — 

In  the  words  of  my  Saviour,  "I  am  one  with  Thee," 
Trusting  Thy  truth  to  lead  me  aright. 

Nothing  on  earth  can  harm  me,  my  Father, 
Thou  art  the  source  of  wisdom  divine; 

Abide  in  the  vine,  its  love  I  shall  gather, 
In  this  alone,  I  can  always  be  Thine. 

The  Saviour  has  taught  me  to  serve  Thee,  Thee  only, 
Abide  in  the  vine  of  truth — that  is  love; 

Thou  are  the  Hunsbandman,  tender  in  mercy, 
Thou  wilt  from  me  all  evil  remove. 

Why  should  I  fear,  restored  in  the  blessing, 
Fed  with  the  knowledge  of  Thy  loving  care; 

Who  art  within  me,  my  pathway  directing, 

Thy  presence  to  bless  me,  Thy  kingdom  to  share. 

Naught  can  molest  me  while  I  am  faithful, 
Father  a  principle  of  life  Thou  art  to  me; 

I  only  must  trust  Thee,  ever  be  mindful, 
I  am  Thine  here  and  now  and  ever  shall  be. 


Truth  Shall  Save  the  World 


The  sadness  of  the  world  today 

Its  turmoil  in  evil  strife, 
How  scheming  men  in  false  array 

Are  destroying  human  life. 
There  is  much  more  than  man  can  do, 

To  alleviate  the  suffering 
Nations  on  nations  with  might  accrue, 

To  remove  the  evil  cursing. 

There  is  One  who  can  and  will  remove, 

The  plight  of  sin  and  sorrow, 
Our  God  with  might  in  His  great  love

In  the  spirit  of  recreating. 

The  human  family  shall  be  changed, 

Their  heart  of  stone  reclaimed — 
A  heart  of  flesh  in  truth  arranged, 

This  promise  God  proclaimed; 
This  is  the  means  our  nations  save, 

This  only  can  our  life  sustain, 
The  Father  shall  destroy  the  grave, 

True  life  and  love  retain. 


TRUTH   SHALL   SAVE    THE   WORLD  93 


Men  in  fearful  minds  are  wondering 

When  the  end  will  come  of  dearth,

'Tis  the  fight  to  conquer  hell, 
False  idealist  its  creation,

All  the  nations  to  never  part. 

Man  shall  fight  his  own  salvation — 

Shall  restore  himself  in  life, 
Forever  live  in  true  creation, 

Free  from  power  of  evil  strife. 
Power  of  truth  shall  win  the  nations, 

Working  through  the  heart  of  man — 
This  is  God's  way  of  salvation 

In  His  promised,  glorious  plan. 


The  Blessings  of  Inward  Truth 


The  blessings  of  truth  it  is  coming, 

To  rescue  the  nations  of  earth, 
Its  light  our  pathway  is  shining, 

To  conquer  autocracy's  dearth; 
To  remove  for  all  time  its  surfdom, 

Establish  heaven's  peace  for  us  all, 
To  give  to  all  nations  the  freedom, 

To  live  in  the  heavenly  call. 

Man  in  his  mind  shall  awaken 

To  live  in  the  truth  of  our  God — 
The  power  of  evil  shall  be  broken, 

Man  shall  dwell  in  wisdom's  abode; 
These  are  promises  given  to  Jesus 

By  Our  Father  in  the  Spirit  within, 
Whose  presence  with  mercy  shall  bless  us, 

That  makes  us  immune  from  all  sin. 

The  guidance  we  have  of  His  presence, 

That  dwells  within  our  soul, 
The  spirit  of  love  the  essence 

Of  life  in  Him  to  be  whole. 
We  are  in  the  days  He  will  bless  us 

With  life  everlasting  to  live, 
Fulfilling  the  promise  to  Jesus, 

The  Father  within  him  did  give. 

We  shall  receive  His  law  of  love 

Within  our  being  ne'er  to  part, 
He  shall  restore  us  in  truth  above 

Within  our  mind  and  heart. 
No  longer  shall  it  be  necessary, 

Man  his  neighbor  to  teach, 
For  the  truth  shall  be  continually 

Within  all  humanity's  reach. 


THE   BLESSINGS  OF   INWARD   TRUTH  95 


No  more  ecclesias,  no  more  scribes, 

In  false  ideas  to  teach, 
No  more  chance  to  make  use  of  bribes 

The  wealth  of  the  nations  to  reach; 
Pure  inwardness  shall  be  in  us  all, 

Pure  desire  to  live  in  God's  love, 
All  languages  of  people  to  call 

In  harmony  of  truth  from  above. 

"As  the  light  cometh  out  of  the  east, 

"And  shineth  even  unto  the  west," 
"All  people  from  the  greatest  to  the  least" 

In  blessings  of  peace  shall  attest. 
The  power  of  truth  shall  be,  in  us, 

To  guide  every  one  in  true  love, 
Fulfilling  the  promise  of  Jesus, 

All  that  offend  He  shall  remove. 


"If  a  Man  Keep  My  Sayings  He 
Shall  Never  See  Death" 

— John  S:S1 


No  one  in  false  ideas  of  life 

Can  comprehend  this  saying, 
That  Jesus  spoke  who's  mind  was  rife, 

To  show  to  man  life's  blessing, 
No  thought  of  birth  or  death  of  His, 

To  give  mankind  the  power 
To  obtain  Eternal  life,  its  bliss, 

For  the  mind  to  live  forever. 

The  mind  must  be  in  true  ideas 

To  understand  this  promise, 
No  power  of  thought  in  false  ideas 

Can  comprehend  the  premise; 
Jesus  spoke  the  words  of  life, 

The  Father  within  Him  directed, 
He  spoke  in  conflict  to  mortal  strife, 

Eternal  truth  protected 

We  must  believe,  in  Him  abide, 

In  the  vine  of  truth,  to  know 
The  meaning  of  His  word,  aside, 

That  error  thoughts  doth  show 
We  cannot  mix  the  false  with  truth, 

And  try  to  comprehend 
We  must  deny  all  thoughts  uncouth, 

The  true  ideas  attend. 

Jesus  spoke  the  words  of  love, 

Made  clear  to  man  its  meaning; 
He  spoke  of  life  in  truth  above, 

Proclaimed  to  all  its  blessing, 
The  truth  of  Jesus  we  shall  know, 

Within  our  heart  and  mind, 
The  Spirit  of  the  Father  will  show, 

The  power  of  love  to  find. 


IF  A  MAN  KEEP  MY  SAYINGS  97 


Love  was  the  keyword  of  our  Lord, 

Where  love  is,  there  is  life, 
Search  and  we  shall  find  His  word 

In  Heavenly  theme  is  rife, 
His  works  and  words  alone  is  our  guide, 

To  be  at  one  with  God, 
In  Him  alone  we  must  abide, 

To  live  in  Heaven's  abode. 


The  promises  He  gave  to  man, 

The  blessings  to  obtain, 
We  must  conform  to  the  Father's  plan, 

Its  mysteries  made  plain, 
The  first  step  to  be  taken  is, 

Repent,  means  change  our  mind, 
This  we  must  do  to  obtain  the  bliss, 

True  life  and  love  to  find. 

When  Jesus  came  to  earth  He  found 

Man  in  exceeding  sin, 
In  false  ideas  His  heart  was  bound, 

In  mortal  thoughts  were  in, 
Death  stalked   upon  the  earth, 

No  peace,  no  blessings  here, 
His  soul  was  lost  in  evil  dearth 

In  chains  of  deathly  fear. 

He  emphasized  through  His  word 

The  blessings  due  to  man, 
When  in  His  truth  they  shall  accord, 

To  know  His  loving  plan, 
His  birth  nor  death  avails  to  give, 

Man's  right  to  life  in  God, 
In  true  ideas  of  life  did  live, 

Remove  man's  sinful  load. 


98  IF  A  MAN  KEEP  MY  SAYINGS 


When  we  believe  and  abide  in  Jesus, 

That  moment  we  shall  know 
The  meaning  of  the  truth  He  brought  us, 

Redemption  His  life  doth  show, 
When  false  ideas  attempts  to  claim, 

His  death  on  Calvary  brought  us 
Redemption  from  all  evil  shame, 

Are  not  the  words  of  Jesus. 


''My  words  are  truth,  My  words  are  life," 

He  spoke  while  He  was  living, 
His  death  not  meant  to  conquer  strife, 

To  remove  man's  unbelieving, 
To  His  disciples  He  made  it  clear 

That  they  should  believe  His  word, 
He  came  from  God  in  truth  sphere; 

Taught  them  in  truth  accord. 

When  anti-Christ  assumes  to  claim 

That  death  brings  man  to  life, 
They  should  repent  their  evil  shame 

They  teach  in  cruel  strife, 
This  is  not  our  Saviour's  loving  word, 

He  spoke  of  life  while  here, 
And  man  to  live  in  truth  accord, 

Must  discard  their  evil  fear. 

Anti-Christ  has  much  to  blame  for  sin, 

Who  preach  in  false  tradition, 
Their  mind  must  change  for  them  to  win 

The   life   of  true   creation; 
They  are  the  curse  of  earth  today, 

They  teach  man  false  creation, 
In  evil  strife  in  false  array 

They  foster  condemnation. 


IF  A  MAN  KEEP  MY  SAYINGS  99 


Examine  ecclesias,  what  they  teach, 

What  meaning  they  give  to  life, 
The  truth  of  Jesus  do  not  preach, 

With  true  ideas  at  strife 
The  essential  truth  they  leave  alone. 

Are  steeped  in  false  ideas, 
Traditions  of  men  they  lean  upon, 

Discarding  true  ideas. 

False  ideas  shall  perish  from  the  earth, 

Traditions  shall  pass  away, 
No  longer  shall  its  evil  dearth 

Torment  man's  life  alway, 
The  words  of  Jesus  they  are  life, 

Are  meant  to  save  mankind, 
Its  purpose  is  to  remove  all  strife, 

Man  true  ideas  to  find. 

This  is  the  Father's  glorious  plan 

To  restore  in  love  the  nations, 
To  recreate  the  life  of  man, 

In  true  ideas  creation; 
This  is  the  meaning  of  Jesus'  word, 

"Mind  of  man  shall  never  die," 
And  when  the  earth  in  truth  accord, 

True  ideas  man  shall  apply. 

These  are  the  teachings  of  our  Lord, 

New  life  the  nations  give, 
Kings  and  Rulers  in  one  accord, 

In  Democracy's  truth  shall  live, 
The  great  war  of  the  nations  here, 

Are  means  to  destroy  all  strife, 
The  Heavenly  promise  is  to  cheer 

Mankind  with  Eternal  life. 


100  IF  A  MAN  KEEP  MY  SAYINGS 


"If  a  man  keep  My  sayings" 

He  shall  never  see  death," 
The  fact  of  His  believing 

Removes  the  evil  wrath, 
'Tis  the  fruit  of  false  ideas 

That  cause  the  earth  its  sin, 
'Tis  the  fruit  of  true  ideas, 

New  life  the  earth  to  win. 

There  is  nothing  safer  for  us 

Than  to  believe  our  Father's  word, 
The  true  word  told  by  Jesus, 

New  life  to  all  afford; 
Discard  the  false  ideas, 

For  the  truth  that  now  is  due, 
Our  Father  who  within  us, 

Our  hearts  with  life  renew. 

All  selfishness  shall  banish 

In  the  true  ideas  of  life, 
Its  evil  guilt  shall  vanish 

With  its  power  of  cruel  strife, 
We  are  in  the  glorious  presence 

Of  Jesus  Christ  our  Lord, 
He  will  give  us  of  the  essence, 

Of  life  that's  in  His  word. 

All  people  of  the  earth  shall  know 

The  truth  that  Jesus  spoke, 
Within  their  mind  true  life  shall  show, 

In  peace  and  joy  shall  walk, 
The  Father's  Spirit  will  create 

New  life  in  all  to  bless, 
The  nations  shall  in  true  estate, 

The  Father's  life  possess. 


'With  the  Mind  I  Serve  God" 

—Paul 

No  thoughts  in  evil  can  restore  our  mind, 
To  the  truth  of  God  its  blessings  find; 
By  the  mind  in  true  ideas  alone 
Can  we  our  future  rest  upon. 

Through  the  mind  the  false  ideas  did  work, 
Within  our  being  in  viciousness  did  lurk; 
Through  evil  mind  the  nations  are  now  at  war, 
Through  the  mind  of  truth  shall  be  no  more. 

Through  our  mind  our  Father  now  is  working, 
Prepare  the  nations  to  receive  His  blessing. 
Through  the  mind  all  families  of  the  earth 
Shall  rid  itself  of  autocracy's  dearth. 

Mind  of  man  is  mighty  in  creation 

When  thoughts  are  tempered  in  love's  devotion; 

A  mighty  curse  is  mind  in  false  ideas, 

Has  robed  the  earth  of  heavenly  peace. 

Through  the  mind -we  shall  redeem  the  earth; 
In  heavenly  thoughts  remove  its  dearth. 
Through  the  mind  of  man  the  nations  all 
Shall  be  restored  in  the  heavenly  call. 

The  mind  of  man  shall  forever  live, 
Through  the  mind  God  shall  His  blessings  give, 
Through  the  mind  the  nations  all  shall  shine, 
Through  the  mind  shall  live  in  life  divine. 

Through  the  mind  we  exist  in  our  very  being, 
Through  the  mind  the  truth  of  heaven  are  seeing, 
Through  the  mind  at  one  in  the  Father's  mind, 
Life  everlasting  here  we  shall  find. 


102  "WITH   THE  MIN'L*  I  SERVE  GOD" 


Through  the  mind  we  have  failed  in  the  heavenly 

call, 

Through  the  mind  the  curse  has  filled  us  all; 
Through  the  mind  in  truth  shall  forever  be, 
Enjoy  the  blessings  of  earth's  jubilee. 

Through  the  mind  the  false  idealist  taught 
His  teachings  in  cruel  vicious  thought; 
Through  the  mind  of  Christ  we  shall  be  free 
To  serve  heaven's  truth  and  harmony. 

Through  the  mind  the  statesmen,  in  all  the  nations, 
The  Father  shall  establish  restitution. 
They  are  the  ones  through  whom  the  Father  will 
Bestow  upon  mankind  His  promise  to  fulfill. 

Through  the  mind  of  Anti-Christ  the  nations  all 
Are  now  at  war  in  autocracy's  call; 
They  fostered  the  enemy  of  mankind 
In  cruel,  selfish,  viscious  mind. 

Through  the  mind,  false  ecclesias  their  evil  done, 
The  power  of  wealth  they  now  posses  have  won 
Through  the  mind  shall  see  their  evil  shame, 
Who  have  robbed  our  God  of  His  loving  name. 

Through  the  mind  of  man  God  shall  bless 
The  families  of  the  earth  in  truth  confess; 
Through  the  mind  of  man  God  shall  work  His  love, 
Direct  his  thoughts  in  blessings  of  truth  above. 

'Tis  the  mind  of  man  that  has  cursed  the  earth, 
Man  and  beast  now  suffer  from  its  dearth; 
Through  the  mind  of  man  remove  its  cruelty, 
The  nations  to  be  in  peace  and  harmony. 


"WITH   THE  MIND  I   SERVE  GOD"  103 


The  mind  of  Jesus  is  lifted  up  in  power 
To  draw  all  men  in  truth  and  love  together; 
This  is  the  work  of  grace  in  his  promised  word, 
Through  our  mind  we  are  to  live  in  true  accord. 

The  healing  of  the  nations  is  the  plan 

The  power  of  truth  shall  work  through  mind  of 

man. 

The  great  mind  of  the  universe,  His  purpose  is, 
To  bless  mankind  in  truth  and  Heavenly  bliss. 

The  mind  of  Jesus  is  our  guide  this  night, 
Blending  our  mind  in  Him  shall  bring  the  light. 
The  blessings  of  the  promised  love  and  life 
Shall   forever   remove   all   evil   strife. 

The  mind  of  Jesus  is  working  in  the  nations 
To  restore  their  families,  in  true  devotion, 
To  serve  the  true  ideas  of  life  he  taught, 
To  share  the  heavenly  blessings  in  pure  thought. 

Through  the  mind,  the  Father  shall  remove  all 

dearth; 
Through  the  mind,  man  shall  enter  into  heaven's 

rebirth. 

Mind  of  man,  within  the  mind  of  God, 
Will  be  the  means  the  earth  to  dwell  in  truth '3 

abode. 

No  longer  shall  false  ideas  in  evil  mind 
Corrupt  the  earth,  its  people,  with  thoughts  un- 
kind; 

The  power  of  evil  thought  shall  be  destroyed 
Forever,  from  the  nations  of  earth  be  removed. 

The  thoughts  of  Jesus  shall  guide  our  way, 
In  wisdom,  grace  and  love  to  always  stay. 
His  mind  within  our  mind  shall  make  us  shine, 
To  live  forever  more  in  life  divine. 


The  Doom  of  the  False 
Ecclesias 

Ecclesias,  who  are  doomed,  are  those 

Who  preach  in  false  ideas, 
Traditions  of  men  they  rather  choose, 

Far  from  the  true  ideas; 
They  have  organized  in  numerous  creeds 

To  fool  mankind  for  pelf, 
They  rob  the  people  to  suit  their  needs, 

Their  riches  gain  for  self. 

They  cause  dissension  in  homes  of  love, 

Through  those  they  have  control, 
Sweet  blessings  of  nature  they  remove, 

To  preach  the  adamic  fall, 
The  fall  they  preach  is  for  honor  gain, 

They  make  a  fiend  of  God, 
They  fill  the  people  with  evil  stain, 

Dwell  not  in  truth's  abode, 

They  do  not  preach  that  "God  is  Love" 

Except  on  limited  scale, 
They  claim,  to  own,  the  home  above, 

We  must  believe  their  tale, 
That  God  has  hell  for  all  the  bad 

Who  do  not  believe  their  creed, 
Their  tales  of  woe  are  very  sad, 

Who  do  not  give  them  heed. 

A  cunning,  scheming  set  of  men 

Who  runs  their  churches  all, 
The  weak  they  capture  with  bold  "Amen," 

For  their  support,  to  call, 
A  mixture  of  conglomeration, 

The  teachings  they  give  through  life, 
They  glory  to  preach  condemnation, 

Their  heart  is  filled  with  strife. 


THE  DOOM  OF  THE  FALSE  ECCLESIAS         105 


They  are  far  from  teaching  "God  is  Love" 

As  Jesus  taught  through  life, 
They  do  not  lead  to  truth  above, 

They  are  blinded  with  evil  strife; 
They  seek  through  life,  the  honored  place, 

Where  riches  do  abound, 
And  curse  all  those  of  our  race 

In  creed,  with  them,  not  bound. 

The  freedom  of  truth  they  do  not  know, 

The  words  of  Jesus  spurn, 
Their  teachings,  their  hearts  doth  show, 

In  words  of  fire  that  burn, 
No  foundation,  in  fact,  have  they, 

To  preach  their  hellish  creed, 
No  single  word  did  Jesus  say 

That  justifies  their  meed. 

In  Jesus'  words  are  warning  given, 

To  avoid  traditions  of  man, 
For  such  are  far  from  the  kingdom  of  Heaven, 

No  such  teachings  had  he  a  plan, 
He  taught,  "That  God  so  loved  the  world" 

All  its  families  shall  save, 
The  banner  of  truth  is  now  unfurled, 

That  preaches  the  truth  He  gave. 

The  world's  on  fire  to  remove  the  dross 

Of  wicked  men  who  cling 
To  false  ideas  of  cruel  cross, 

That  man,  salvation  bring, 
The  kingdom  of  God  is  within,  all, 

The  families  of  our  race, 
The  spirit  of  truth  in  each  will  call, 

False  ideas  to  have  no  place, 


106         THE  DOOM  OF  THE  FALSE  ECCLESIAS 


They're  doomed  ecclisias,  one  and  all, 

Their  slavery  shall  be  no  more, 
The  earth  shall  be  rid  of  error's  fall, 

No  longer  false  creed  adore, 
The  love  of  God  shall  cover  earth, 

As  waters  cover  the  sea, 
When  creed  shall  vanish  with  its  dearth, 

In  truth  mankind  shall  be. 

The  spirit  of  God  shall  bless  the  earth, 

As  Jesus  taught  in  life, 
His  truth  shall  remove  all  evil  dearth 

To  bannish  cruel  strife, 
No  place  like  hell  was  ever  known 

Outside  of  Anti-Christ, 
The  teachings  we  must  lean  upon, 

Is  the  truth  of  the  loving  Christ. 

What  consternation  it  will  be 

When  ecclesias  shall  be  shorn, 
Of  its  power  when  all  shall  see 

The  falsehood  they  have  borne, 
What  riches,  honor,  they  have  gained, 

What  slavery  they  have  made, 
What  millions  peoples  they  have  pained, 

What  vicious  game  have  played! 

Their  day  of  doom  is  close  at  hand, 

To  fool  earth's  people  more, 
The  awakening  shall  be  to  understand, 

True  love  and  life  adore, 
The  teachings  of  our  Saviour  Lord, 

Shall  guide  mankind  to  know 
The  meaning  of  His  work  and  word, 

In  wisdom's  ways  to  grow. 


THE  DOOM  OF  THE  FALSE  ECCLESIAS         107 


The  words  of  Jesus,  they  are  life, 

They  are  love  to  bless  us  here, 
His  truth  shall  remove  ecclesias  strife, 

Its  vicious  hellish  fear, 
Who'll  soon  be  banished  from  the  earth, 

Autocracy  as  well, 
All  selfishness  with  its  evil  dearth 

Shall  meet  its  death  knell. 

Rejoice  o  earth,  the  day  is  here, 

To  rid  mankind  for  aye, 
Remove  false  nature's  evil  fear, 

To  oblivion,  there  to  stay, 
The  words  of  Jesus  they  are  life, 

They  are  love  to  bless  us  here, 
His  truth  shall  banish  evil  strife, 

Remove  all  hellish  fear. 

Autocracy  with  its  evil  mind, 

Aristocracy  with  its  scheming  lore, 
Plutocracy,  alas!  they  all  shall  find, 

Its  master  shall  be  no  more, 
Ecclesias  have  fostered  with  zeal  and  care, 

The  enemies  of  mankind, 
The  bounties  of  the  earth  to  share, 

Created  in  vicious  mind. 

The  masters  of  slavery,  that  is  known, 

Shall  be  banished  from  the  earth 
The  nations  shall  the  truth  be  shown, 

The  blessings  of  Heavenly  birth, 
The  spirit  of  truth  shall  be  in  man, 

In  love  to  bless  each  other, 
This  is  the  purpose  of  the  Father's  plan, 

In  truth  the  nations  gather. 


108         THE  DOOM  OF  THE  FALSE  ECCLJSIAS 


This  is  the  meaning  of  Jesus'  word, 

This  is  the  truth  He  taught, 
The  nations  shall  be  in  one  accord 

With  Heavenly  blessings  fraught, 
Seek  among  the  ecclesias,  and  see 

If  such  a  promise  is  given, 
They  are  far  from  truth  and  equity, 

Are  far  from  the  kingdom  of  Heaven. 

The  world's  on  fire  today  to  move 

The  power  of  false  ideas, 
Our  Heavenly  Father  in  truth  and  love 

Shall  bless  in  true  ideas, 
All  men  are  born  alike  in  life, 

Each  to  enjoy  love's  peace, 
None  was  born  to  evil  strife, 

But  born  God's  truth  to  seize. 


The  days  of  false  deception 

Is  coming  to  a  close, 
The  day  of  restitution 

Is  here  in  love's  repose, 
The  words  of  our  Heavenly  Father 

Will  have  no  void  return, 
He  will  soon  the  nations  gather, 

All  dross  of  mind  shall  burn. 

Our  mother  earth  shall  blossom, 

Give  forth  her  plentitude, 
All  men  shall  in  their  bossom 

Bear  love  and  gratitude, 
They  shall  live  like  Jesus  lived  on  earth, 

Who  was  our  pattern  here, 
Enjoy  the  blessings  of  Heavenly  mirth, 

Each  other  in  truth  to  cheer. 


Democracy 


Democracy  is  the  world's  salvation, 

From  false  ideas  of  life, 
The  power  of  the  new  creation 

That  shall  remove  all   strife; 
'Tis  the  means  our  Heavenly  Father, 

To  bless  with  peace  the  earth, 
In  wisdom  of  truth  to  gather, 

Remove  all  evil  dearth. 

'Tis  the  mind  that  was  in  Jesus, 

Who  taught  us  the  Father's  will, 
In  His  words  and  works  did  show  us, 

Our  life  with  blessings  fill, 
'Tis  the  mind,  the  inspiration, 

To  make  us  true  to  God, 
'Tis  the  fruit  of  the  new  creation, 

Life  and  love  in  truth's  abode. 

The  nations  of  the  earth  shall  garner, 

The  true  ideas  of  life, 
Their  families  all  to  gather 

To  conquer  evil  strife, 
Through  the  mind  the  Father's  working, 

The  day  of  grace  to  give; 
Through  the  mind  of  man  the  blessings, 

In  true  ideas  to  live. 

Mankind  is  now  awakening 

To  claim  their  own  to  live, 
Democracy  is  the  blessing 

The  Eternal  mind  doth  give, 
From  the  least  unto  the  greatest, 

Shall  know  the  truth  within, 
The  Father's  love  the  assets, 

Its  fruits  all  men  shall  win. 


109 


110  DEMOCRACY 


The  earth  today  is  on  fire 

To  remove  the  dross  of  sin, 
To   remove  autocracy's  power, 

The  Father's  love  to  win; 
This  is  the  means  of  blessings 

That'll  accrue  to  all  mankind, 
With  life  and  health  refreshing, 

Restored  in  Heavenly  mind. 

Man  lost  the  true  ideas 

When  he  choose  his  evil  ways, 
In  his  mind  the  false  ideas 

Brought  sorrows  all  his  days; 
The  power  of  evil  is  wanning, 

Its  day  will  soon  be  o'er, 
Democracy  is  surely  coming 

To  remove  earth's  cruel  war. 

The  nations  all— both  great  and  small,    , 

Shall  know  the  Father's  will; 
The  hearts  of  statesmen  in  wisdom's  call 

Shall  remove  the  nation's  ill, 
"Thy  kingdom  come,  Thy  will  be  done," 

Shall  be  the  prayers  of  all; 
In  Heavenly  wisdom,  rely  upon, 

In  freedom,  their  people  call. 

Peace  and  good  will  shall  fill  the  earth, 

No  longer  shall  be  strife, 
Nations  of  people  in  Heavenly  birth 

Shall  live  in  the  Father's  life; 
This  is  Democracy's  purpose  here, 

To  acquaint  man  with  his  God, 
To  bless  each  other  with  Heavenly  cheer, 

To  dwell  in  truth's  abode. 


(Love  Of  God  For  All  People) 
Universal  Truth 

Heaven's  truth  is  universal, 

Is   intended   for   every  man, 
In  love  and  life  his  family  call, 

This  is   the   Father's  plan. 
No  creed  or  isms  have  patent  right, 

To  claim  the  Truth  it's  own; 
God's  love  and  life  in  wisdom's  might, 

Is  for  all  to  lean  upon. 

No  claim  can  organization 

Make  of  the  truth  now  due; 
The  means  of  heaven's  salvation 

Is  to  all  and  not  to  few. 
The  Father  deals  with  nations 

To  manifest  his  light, 
In  the  spirit  of  the  new  creation, 

To  remove  earth's  cruel  night. 

All  isms   and  creeds  in  anti-Christ 

Shall  bannish  from  the  earth, 
The  teachings  of  the  loving  Christ 

Shall  remove  its  evil  dearth, 
The  awakening  shall  be  in  all  mankind 

Made  clean  and  pure  within, 
Be  blest  in  the  heavenly  Father's  mind, 

Its  true  ideas  to  win. 

The  mind  that  was  in  Jesus 

Shall  be  our  guide  this  night; 
His  presence,  it  shall  lead  us 

To  walk  in  heavenly  light. 
No  longer  in  organization 

Of  anti-Christ  to  believe, 
The  Father  shall  own  the  nations, 

Their  families  all  receive. 


Criticism  on  the  Theory  of 
Anti-Christ— 

"Nothing  but  the  Blood  of  Jesus  " 

'Tis  the  mind  of  our  Father  in  Jesus, 

That  saves  mankind  from  sin, 
'Tis  His  words  in  truth  that  bless  us, 

Our  way  true  life  to  win. 
Jesus  Himself  never  mentioned, 

His  death  availed  for  man, 
He  oft  His  disciples  cautioned, 

To  abide  in  Him — as  one. 

"My  words  are  truth,"  He  oft  declared, 

My  words  are  life  to  all, 
To  Him  no  other  means  appeared, 

To  save  us  from  the  fall, 
He  told  them  of  the  Father  within, 

He  doeth  the  work  of  grace, 
No  other  means  for  us  to  win, 

No  other  hope  for  our  race. 

He  told  them  that  the  spirit  of  love 

Shall  lead  them  through  to  life, 
'  To  "abide"  in  Him  in  Truth  above 

Is  the  means  to  conquer  strife. 
No  thought  of  Calvary,  or  its  cruel  deed 

Had  entered  His  words  of  truth, 
No  thought  of  shedding  His  blood,  indeed, 

Avail  us,  from  sin,  forsooth. 

He  oft  reminded  His  faithful  few, 

That  soon  from  them  He  would  part, 
Not  mentioning  of  death,  their  life  to  renew, 

But  the  dwelling  of  His  truth  in  their  heart, 
"Abide  in  Me"  rung  through  their  mind, 

The  words  He  spoke  while  in  life, 
When  death  appeared  in  Him,  we  find 

Availed  not  to  conquer  strife.

CRITICISM  ON  ANTI-CHRIST  113 


He  came  to  His  own,  His  own  knew  Him  not, 

He  came,  spoke  words  of  peace 
Throughout  His  life  was  faithful,  we  note, 

Humanity's  welfare  to  seize, 
Not  so,  in  shedding  of  blood,  did  He, 

His  Father  glorify, 
But  in  words  and  works  of  life  we  see 

That  brought  salvation  nigh. 

He  loved  to  teach  the  truth  of  God, 

While  in  His  veins  did  flow 
The  blood  of  life  in  truth's  abode, 

As  up  and  down,  did  go, 
Not  once,  He  spoke  of  His  death  to  pay, 

The  ransom  for  mankind, 
He  urged  His  disciples  every  day, 

To  note  the  truth  of  His  mind. 

The  enemies  of  truth  declare  today, 

That  in  his  death,  Jesus  won, 
The  ransom  price  for  man  to  stay, 

Eternal  life  to  own, 
But  Jesus  spoke  of  His  depart, 

His  spirit  would  lead  them  on, 
Tarry  until  thou  art  in  Me  a  part, 

In  My  words,  rely  upon. 

Our  Saviour  made  no  boast  of  birth, 

Or  of  His  death  man  to  avail, 
To  be  the  means  to  remove  from  earth, 

The  falsehood  that  did  prevail. 
He  taught  the  truth  throughout  His  day, 

In  wisdom,  grace  and  love, 
This  is  the  means  for  us  today, 

To  obtain  our  hope  above. 


114  CRITICISM  ON  ANTI-CHRIST 


To  believe  the  words  of  Jesus  will 

Remove  from  us  sin's  strife, 
This  is  the  ransom  of  the  Father's  will, 

This  is  the  means  for  life. 
"My  words  are  truth,  my  words  are  life," 

This  is  the  ransom  for  all, 
This  is  the  means  that  shall  make  it  rife, 

For  us  in  the  Heavenly  call. 

The  blood  of  Jesus  availeth  none, 

Except  as  it  flowed  through  his  veins, 
His  life  in  His  Father  was  "well  done" 

This  is  the  victory  that  gains, 
"Abide  in  Me,"  says  the  Christ  of  God, 

That,  in  living  Jesus,  spoke, 
Abide  in  Me  in  truth's  abode, 

No  longer  in  sin  to  walk. 

Jesus,  the  true  Idealist  of  life, 

Was  faithful  to  His  Father's  will; 
He  conquered  the  world  and  its  evil  strife. 

Our  life  with  peace  to  fill, 
To  blend  our  life  in  His  great  love 

Is  the  ransom  for  our  soul, 
The  only  guide  to  truth  above, 

The  way  to  the  Heavenly  call. 

At  one  with  Him  will  make  us  know, 

The  Father  who  is  within, 
The  truth  in  Jesus'  life  shall  show, 

Us  our  victory  over  sin. 
At  one  with  the  Father  in  Jesus'  love, 

Is  the  ransom  here  for  all. 
This  is  the  means  all  sin  to  remove, 

To  make  sure  the  Heavenly  call. 


CRITICISM  ON  ANTI-CHRIST  115 


The  life  that  Jesus  lived,  was  peace, — 

Was  joy,  in  the  Father  within, 
'Tis  the  means  for  us  true  life  to  seize, 

To  conquer  power  of  sin, 
His  love,  His  truth,  His  graces  all, 

Are  ours  if  we  but  choose; 
His  very  life,  not  death,  our  call, 

From  errors'  ways  be  loose. 

His  days  of  life  on  earth  were  few, 

He  every  moment  gave, 
The  false  ideas  of  life  did  shew, 

From  its  power  man  to  save. 
He  is  the  door  of  life  to  us  all, 

His  very  work  and  word, 
His  living  daily  was  the  ransom  call, 

His  death  no  life  afford. 

Repent  the  only  condition  He  gave, 

From  false  ideas  in  our  mind, 
The  words  of  true  ideas  he  gave, 

We  are  to  seek  and  find. 
"There's  none  that  can  come  to  me, 

Except  the  Father  draweth;" 
They  are  the  ones  the  truth  shall  see, 

Are  those  whom  the  Father  loveth. 

No  sacrifice  at  all  is  given — 

Nothing  to  lose  but  all  to  gain. 
Man  returns  to  the  Kingdom  of  Heaven, 

As  portrayed  in  "the  Prodigal  Son." 
Man  lost  his  first  estate  in  life, 

His  own  ideas  he  choose, 
Which  was  false  and  cruel,  full  of  strife, 

Eternal  life  did  lose. 


116  CRITICISM  ON  ANTI-CHRIST 


The  blessings  in  the  life  of  our  Lord, 

Are  ours,  a  light  to  shine, 
The  way  to  life  in  truth  accord, 

The  way  to  love  divine, 
A  loving  truthful  life  He  gave, 

In  wisdom  from  above, 
The  human  families  all  to  save, 

In  the  Father's  truth  and  love. 

The  promise  is,  all  shall  know, 

The  truth  our  Lord  did  give, 
The  hearts  of  all  shall  be  aglow, 

In  Eternal  life  to  live. 
These  are  the  promises  of  the  Lord, 

That  nations  all  shall  be 
Blest  in  the  wisdom  of  His  word, 

Its  people  His  truth  to  see. 

Jesus  died  for  none,  this  life  to  live, 

He  lived  to  save  mankind, 
His  words  and  works,  all  doth  give, 

The  Father's  gracious  mind. 
A  principle  of  life,  the  Father  is, 

In  all  His  creation  here, 
Without  him  none  could  know  the  bliss, 

The  truth  of  being  to  share. 

The  nations  all  today's  on  fire, 

To  rid  the  world  of  sin, 
Its  people  shall  in  truth  aspire, 

Peace  and  good  will  shall  win. 
This  was  the  purpose  of  our  Lord, 

This  is  why  He  came  to  earth, 
Fulfill  the  promise  of  the  Father's  word, 

To  remove  all  evil  dearth. 


CRITICISM  ON  ANTI-CHRIST  117 


He  did  not  come  to  curse  mankind, 

As  anti-Christ  believe, 
He  taught  the  truth  of  the  Father's  mind, 

For  us  its  light  receive; 
There  is  no  condemnation  now, 

Nor  none  to  come  to  man, 
His  tender  loving  word  doth  show, 

His  Father's  wondrous  plan. 

In  words  of  Jesus,  man  is  taught 

The  ways  to  Eternal  life; 
This  is  what  in  His  life  He  brought 

To  conquer  evil  strife, 
"Nothing  but  the  blood  of  Jesus" 

Will  not  avail  us  here, 
We  must  believe  the  words  he  taught  us, 

To  reach  the  Heavenly  sphere. 

Jesus  did  not  claim  His  Father,  God, 

A  stern,  stupendous  being, 
Who  curse  or  bless  at  will,  in  His  abode, 

As  is  anti-Christ's  conceiving. 
Jesus  said  "The  Father's  within 

Our  very  being,  a  principle  of  life; 
He  doeth  the  work"  for  us  to  win, 

All  power  of  evil  strife. 

"I  in  My  Father,  My  Father  in  Me," 

Are  the  words  of  life  and  love, 
"I  in  you,  and  you  in  Me," 

Is  the  truth  all  errors  move, 
The  true  idealist  believes,  as  Jesus  taught, 

The  words  of  life  to  all, 
Who  gave  the  wisdom  to  guide  our  thought 

In  the  blessings  of  heavenly  call. 


Hope  of  the  Faithful 

Those  who  love  God  with  all  their  heart, 

With  all  their  mind  and  all  their  soul, 
From  His  wisdom  and  truth  they  never  shall  part, 

In  spirit  of  love  they  are  whole. 
This  is  the  power  that  our  Saviour  does  give 

To  those  who  abide  in  the  vine, 
With  Him  and  the  Father  always  shall  live 

In  the  spirit  of  life  divine. 

To  let  our  light  shine  is  our  duty  here, 

To  speak  of  the  wonderful  love; 
The  Father,  the  faithful,  he'll  always  draw  near. 

Our  life  blest  in  wisdom  above. 
To  those  who  around  us  that  doubt  our  word, 

Through   darkness  of  sin  in  their  heart, 
We  must  live  every  day  in  wisdom's  accord, 

The  light  of  His  truth  to  impart. 

The  pure  in  heart  has  no  fear  of  man, 

His  wholeness  is  in  truth  of  our  Lord. 
To  many  this  seems  a  mysterious  plan, 

Live  apart  from  the  world  through  His  word. 
Some  think  the  church  is  the  only  salvation 

For  us  while  going  through  this  life; 
Our  Lord  directs  us  from  organization, 

"Come  out  of  them"  for  such  are  in  strife. 

To  trust  in  an  organization 

Is  a  mark  of  distrust  in  our  Lord; 
This  is  not  His  plan  of  salvation 

As  recorded  in  the  truth  of  His  Word. 
We  are  to  be  parted  for  all  time, 

To  claim  our  right  to  His  love, 
To  attempt  to  live  both  life  is  a  crime 

That  keeps  us  from  communion  above, 


HOPE  OF   THE   FAITHP^UL  119 


Religion  in  life  not  in  truth  of  the  Lord 

Is  deceptive  and  leads  into  sin. 
The  reliance  must  be  alone  in  His  word, 

His  spirit  of  love  for  to  win. 
Alone  with  the  Saviour  be  our  delight, 

As  onward  through  life  here  we  go, 
Our  daily  communion  brings  us  the  light 

That  makes  us  in  wisdom  to  grow. 

To  love  our  Father  with  all  our  heart 

Is  our  duty  here,  to  be  sure, 
That  error  of  sin  may  not  have  a  part 

With  its  cunning  deceptive  lure. 
No  safety  at  all  to  any,  this  life, 

Apart  from  our  Father's  being; 
His  Spirit  within  us   removes   sin's  strife, 

When  we  in  His  truth  are  abiding. 

This  is  our  victory  over  ills  in  our  heart, 

Abiding  in  Jesus  in  the  vine; 
In  the  life  of  Our  Father  never  to  part, 

Our  soul  in  harmony  divine. 
This  is  the  promise,  in'  truth  we  shall  stand 

In  the  presence  of  Jesus  our  Lord; 
In  its  light  of  truth  its  wisdom  command, 

That  comes  through  our  trust  in  His  Word. 

The  secret  of  truth  of  our  Father 

Is  our  heart,  our  soul,  our  mind; 
In  the  essence  of  life  here  to  gather 

Victory  over  sin  we  shall  find. 
This  is  the  pattern  Jesus  gave  us, 

Abiding  in  the  Father's  great  love; 
This  is  the  victory  that  blesses 

Our  life  to  be  united  above. 


Answer  to  Anti- Christ 


A  great,  stupendous  being  is  not  our  God, 
With  power  to  bless  or  curse  in  His  abode; 
He   is   our  very   life   within   us,   behold! 
Is  the  Eternal  truth  our  Saviour  told. 

The  false  idealist  make  of  God  a  fiend, 

In  errors  of  traditions  they  have  leaned; 

No  blessings,  they  say,  but  through  their  creed, 

Par  from  the  teachings  of  our  Saviour's  meed. 

God  is  love,  omnipotent,  in  the  universe — 
Ready  to  give  of  His  bounties  in  truth  to  bless; 
Within  us,  as  our  very  being,  our  life, 
Ready  to  save  us  all  from  evil  strife. 

God  is  Life,  omnipresence,  without  none  can  live, 
In  true  ideas  He  will  of  his  nature  give; 
Our  Saviour  spoke  the  words  of  life  to  all. 
That  leads  mankind  back  to  Heavenly  call. 

God   is  Wisdom,  omniscient,  in  creation; 
Prepares  for  all  a  day  of  restitution. 
His  power  of  might  within  our  very  soul 
Shall  restore  in  us  the  Heavenly  call. 

His  Love,  His  Life,  His  Wisdom  will 
Restore  the  nations,  His  promise  to  fulfill. 
He   will   remove   all  false   ideas  of  life, 
Restore  the  earth  no  more  to  be  in  strife. 

These  are  the  teachings  of  our  Saviour  Lord, 
"The  Father  within,"  true  meaning  of  His  word. 
"He  doeth  the  work"  our  souls  in  truth  to  shine; 
His  purpose  is  to  make  mankind  divine. 


ANSWER    TO    ANTI-CHRIST  121 


He  has  a  plan  to  bring  to  man  salvation; 

Has  appointed  in  His  truth  a  day  of  restitution; 

A  day  that  shall  destroy  all  evil  dearth, 

A  day  to  make  glad  the  families  of  the  earth. 

The  manifestations  of  his  presence  shall  give  life, 
No  longer  shall  false  idealist  in  evil  strife 
Dwell  on  the  earth  to  mar  the  true  creation; 
No  longer  shall  man  live  in  condemnation. 

We  should  seek  the  Father  as  Jesus  taught, 
Who  will  bless  our  life  with  Heavenly  thought. 
"Thou  in  me,  and  I  in  Thee"  are  truth  divine, 
Who  said:    "All  mine  are  thine,  and  thine  are  mine." 

What  closer  tie  do  we  need,"One  with  the  Father." 
"I,  and  my  Father  are  one,"  in  love  to  gather, 
Abiding  in  the  vine  of  truth,  "Abide  in  me," 
These  are  the  words  of  life,  heaven  on  earth  to  be. 

God  so  loved  the  world,  all  its  families  shall  save, 
His  purpose  is  to  remove  death  and  the  grave; 
Nothing  left  of  false  ideas  of  life, 
Nothing  left  of  its  cruel,  vicious  strife. 

This  is  the  promise  our  Father  through  Jesus  gave, 
The  nations  of  the  earth,  its  families  all  to  save, 
No  thought  of  a  place  to  curse  mankind 
Eternally  in  fire  of  hell  in  cruel  vicious  mind. 

Jesus  never  thought  of  such  a  place  as  hell, 
That  anti-Christ  conceives,  trations  tell, 
God,  our  Father,  never  conceived  such  a  plan, 
His  love,  His  life  is  the  very  being  of  man. 


122  ANSWER    TO    ANTI- CHRIST 


Man  fell  away  from  perfect  love  and  life, 

He  created  false  ideas  that's  been  his  curse  and 

strife. 

Jesus  came  to  us  to  acquaint  us  of  Truth  Divine 
And  promised  man  to  be  in  its  light  to  shine. 

He  will  save  the  nations  in  the  Father's  name, 
He  will  guide  mankind  away  from  evil  shame, 
And  through  the  nations  he  will  save  us  all  from 

death, 
To  live  and  love  forever  in  heavenly  mirth. 

One  with  Him  in  the  Father  we  shall  always  live; 
This  is  the  heavenly  promise,  man  to  give 
Freely  of  his  love  and  life  in  truth  divine, 
His  glorious  presence  with  us  in  wisdom  shine. 

This  is  the  Kingdom  that  shall  come  to  earth, 
There  shall  be  nothing  left  of  evil  dearth; 
Nothing  left  of  false  idealist's  strife, 
Nothing  to  harm  the  harmony  of  Eternal  Life. 

Our  Father  shall  lead  us  in  His  truth  and  right, 
He  has  purposed  all  mankind  to  share  his  light; 
He  has  purposed  our  being  to  be  full  of  love, 
All  things  that  shall  offend  He  will  remove. 

When  this  great  war  is  over,  man  shall  see 
His  way  to  live  in  truth  and  harmony; 
Our  Father  within  us  in  truth  that  Jesus  gave, 
From  error  of  false  ideas  the  earth  to  save. 

"The  earth  abideth  forever,"  is  the  word  of  God, 
Its  families  all  shall  live  in  truth  abode, 
The  power  of  the  Christ  shall  be  in  man, 
To  enjoy  the  blessings  in  the  Father's  plan. 


ANSWER    TO    ANTI-CHRIST  123 


Man's  mind  no  more  shall  wander  in  cruel  sin, 
He  shall  be  at  one  with  the  Father,  Truth  to  win, 
Love  and  life  shall  be  his  blessings  here, 
No  longer  troubled  in  spirit  of  evil  fear. 

There  shall  be  given  nations  peace  above, 
Come  down  to  earth  in  true  life  and  love; 
Man  no  longer  find  his  neighbor  in  evil  strife, 
For  all  shall  share  alike  in  Eternal  life. 

Live  always  in  the  spirit  and  mind  of  God, 
This  shall  be  his  status  in  Truth's  abode, 
Live  to  bless  each  other  in  truth  to  shine, 
Live  forever  with  the  Father  in  love  divine. 


Old  Glory 


Our  flag  is  the  blessing  of  liberty  to  man, 

The  emblem  of  truth  from  above; 
Is   unfurled   in   the   Father's   glorious  plan 

To  restore  on  earth  His  love. 
It's  the  means  to  remove  autocracy, 

No  longer  to  ruin  the  earth; 
'Tis  the  power  in  God's  democracy 

To  remove  false  idealist's  dearth. 

Liberty  is  the  birthright  of  our  nation, 

Freedom's  true  life  to  possess. 
Our  flag  is  of  the  new  creation: 

All  men  born  equal  confess. 
Our  Father  is  here  to  sustain  us, 

To  uphold  the  truth  of  its  fold; 
It's  blessed  with  the  wisdom  of  Jesus, 

His  Liberty  and  love  doth  unfold. 

'Tis  the  flag  that  shall  save  the  nations, 

The  vile  men  of  autocracy  withstand; 
Remove   from   the  earth  condemnation, 

All  its  families  in  truth  to  command; 
Remove  all  selfishness  forever, 

This  is  the  hope  it  doth  give, 
In  peace  and  love  of  the  Father, 

Forever  on  earth  to  live. 

The  flag  of  our  country — it  is  glorious, 

Its  motto:    "In  God  we  trust;" 
In  deeds  of  kindness  is  gracious, 

The  enemy  of  man  it  shall  thrust. 
The  nations  of  earth  that  are  bleeding, 

Our  country,  its  flag  now  unfurled, 
Shall  list  to  the  voice  of  their  pleading, 

Remove  war's  curse  from  the  world. 


OLD    GLORY  125 


The  great  minds  in  truth  in  the  Father, 

Shall  awake  to  rescue  the  earth; 
No   longer  the   nations   shall   gather 

In  the  power  of  autocracy's  dearth. 
The   mind   of   the   people   shall   awaken, 

To  remove  false  ideas  of  life; 
The  Father  in  truth  He  has  spoken, 

Shall  destroy  all  evil  strife. 

Our  brave  men  in  Liberty's  army 

Shall  conquer  the  earth's  cruelest  foe; 
No  longer  in  doubt  shall  they  tarry, 

They  shall  fight  to  bannish  its  woe. 
Our  nation  her  brave  men  are  calling, 

To  save  the  nations  of  earth, 
With  "Old  Glory"  unfurled  is  now  marching, 

To  remove  autocracy's  dearth. 


Acrostic — Triune  Evil  in 
False  Ideas  of  Life 

Autocracy,  vile  in  nature,  steeped  in  cruelty, 
'United  to  destroy  the  nations  amity, 
The  people  of  earth  forced  to  submission, 
Outrageous  deeds  to  hold  the  nations. 
Committed  by  its  rule  of  force, 
Revengeful  nature  in  its  cruel  course, 
An  evil  power  in  false  ideas  of  life, 
Constrain  the  people  in  subjective  life, 
Yea,  fill  them  with  fear  and  evil  strife. 

Aristocracy,  another  blight  of  sin, 

Records  its  selfishness,  to  win, 

In  corrupted  laws,  enslave  the  lands  of  earth, 

Selfishness  ruling  in  evil  dearth, 

That  glory's  to  make  mankind  a  slave, 

Out  of  its  infamous  mind,  that  gave 

Civilization  its  ills  and  pains, 

Retard  the  progress  of  mankind  to  life, 

A  cruel,  wilful  men  in  evil  strife, 

Compel  the  people  in  viciousness  to  remain, 

Yea,  the  wealth  of  nations  for  itself  to  gain. 

Plutocracy,  most  numerous  class, 
Loaded  with  selfishness  in  life,  alas! 
Usurp  with  might,  over  the  nations  of  earth, 
Treacherous  schemes  in  evil  dearth, 
Openly  defy  the  people's  right  to  live, 
Compel  the  masses  their  all  to  give, 
Refusing  a  decent  condition  of  life, 
Appaling  in  acts  of  evil  strife, 
Command  the  nation's  commercial  gain, 
Yea,  myriads  of  people  they  have  slain. 

These  triune  evils  in  false  ideas  of  life, 
They  fill  the  nations  with  cruel  strife, 
They  are  the  cause  of  all  the  ills  to  man, 
Their  very  life  fraught  with  evil  plan. 


TRIUNE  EVIL,  IN  FALSE  IDEAS  127 


Democracy  is  the  power  of  God  to  man, 

Elected  in  the  Father's  glorious  plan; 

Move  from  the  earth  the  evil  strife, 

Offer  its  people  love  and  life; 

Cancel  the  power  of  greed  and  selfishness, 

Remove  all  darkness,  in  light  of  truth  to  bless, 

A  promised  day  is  here  when  false  ideas 

Can  no  longer  boast  its  might, 

Yea,  Truth  of  God  is  shedding  forth  its  light. 

"God  moves  in  mysterious  ways" 

To  those  in  false  ideas  of  life, 

No  longer  shall  they  all  their  days 

Fill  earth  with  cruel  strife; 

Their  day  and  evil,  it  is  close  at  hand, 

God's  truth  is  spreading  over  all  the  land; 

The  nations  all  in  unity  are  rife, 

Blessings  are  here  in  true  ideas  of  life. 

Democracy,  the  power  is  given, 

Of  love  and  truth,  the  blessings  of  Heaven, 

The  promise  of  the  Father's  word, 

Is  being  fulfilled,  man  shall  afford 

The  wisdom  that  shall  save  the  earth. 

Remove  all  false  ideas,  its  evil  dearth, 

The  words  of  Jesus,  they  are  life  to  all, 

They  save  the  nations,  in  wisdom's  call, 

In  mysteries,  no  longer  man  shall  be, 

But  blessed  with  love,  God's  truth  shall  see, 

This  power  of  truth,  selfishness  will  move, 

To  bless  mankind  with  heart  of  love. 

No  longer  shall  sin's  blight  appear, 

To  mar  the  earth  with  evil  fear; 

It  shall  be  known  to  man,  to  live, 

His  neighbor  as  unto  himself — to  give, 

Remove  from  their  midst  the  cause  of  pain, 

Selfishness  with  its  cruel  stain.

Remove  forever,  the  dismal  night. 

Rejoice,  ye  people  of  the  earth,  rejoice!

A  heart  of  flesh,  with  Heavenly  joys, 

The  spirit  of  selfishness  shall  be  riven,

No  longer  shall  its  fruits  the  people  maim. 

The  great  struggle  on  the  earth  today, 
Is  but  the  means  that  leads  to  better  day, 
When  grief  and  sorrow  shall  be  cast  away; 
The  fruits  of  truth  and  love  shall  with  us  stay, 
Dark  and  fierce  the  night  before  us  lie, 
Great  the  struggle,  the  glorious  victory  to  win, 
The  great  Mind  of  the  universe  is  nigh, 
He  will  remove  all  false  ideas  of  sin, 
The  nations  shall  belong  to  truth  and  right, 
Democracy's  sword  is  lifted  in  love's  might. 


Meditations  of  the  True 
Idealist 

More  truth!  More  love!  More  wisdom! 

More  of  thine  image  to  bear, 
An  abundant  entrance  to  thy  kingdom, 

My  Saviour,  thy  graces  to  share; 
Each  moment  of  life  in  thy  presence, 

Away  from  the  darkness  of  sin, 
Each  moment  enjoying  the  essence 

Of  life,  in  the  Father  within. 

Impersonal  as  thou  wert,  my  Saviour, 

Dead  to  all  things  that  offend, 
Alive  in  the  will  of  the  Father 

As  thou  wert,  its  wisdom  attend; 
One  with  thee,  Jesus,  forever, 

In  truthful  life  to  be, 
In  the  folds  of  Heavenly  favor, 

A  life  crowned  with  glory  in  thee. 

An  image  of  Thine  in  all  beauty, 

A  being  all  absorbed  in  Thy  love, 
Filled  with  Thy  kindness  and  mercy, 

Leading  humanity  above, 
Thy  life  of  truth  to  guide  me 

Along  dark  pathway  this  life, 
Thy  spirit  within  me,  make  holy 

And  pure  from  all  evil  strife. 

As  Thou  wert,  My  Saviour,  well  pleasing, 

To  the  Father  who  dwelleth  within 
Thy  graces  of  love,  my  blessings 

True  ideas  of  life  to  win; 
A  light  in  the  world  of  darkness, 

A  way  shower  to  those  in  sin, 
Remove  from  the  earth  its  sadness, 

Our  Father's  kingdom  to  win. 


130     MEDITATIONS  OF  THE  TRUE  IDEALIST 


Like  Thee,  unspotted  and  pure, 

Seek  only,  Thy  Father's  own  word, 
Thy  graces  and  virtue  acquire; 

A  pattern  of  Thee,  my  Lord, 
A  spiritual  being,  incarnated, 

Transformed  from  the  rudiments  of  sin; 
Like  Thee,  in  truth  impregnated, 

Like  Thee  in  wisdom  to  win. 

ID  the  words  of  life  Thou  hast  given, 

I  know  these  things  I  can  be, 
One  with  Thee,  in  the  Kingdom  of  Heaven, 

"Thou  in  me,  and  I  in  Thee," 
Nothing  to  part  my  life  from  Thee, 

A  promise  that's  sure  to  stay; 
I  know,  my  Saviour,  Thou  art  in  m«, 

If  faithful  wilt  remain  all  my  day. 


"Freely  Ye  Have  Received, 
Freely  Give" 


"Heal  the  sick,  cleanse  the  lepers,  raise  the  dead, 
cast  out  devils:  freely  ye  have  received,  freely  give. 
—Math.  10:8. 


Salvation  from  false  ideas  of  life 

Is  free  to  all  mankind, 
Religionist  who  in  cruel  strife 

Have  scheemed  in  evil  mind, 
Have  set  a  money  price  on  love 

That  our  Father  gives  us  free, 
To  obtain  the  blessings  from  above, 

Is  costly — they  say — must  be. 

The  false  ecclisias  with  one  another, 

They  vie  for  power  of  wealth — 
Are  jealous  each  the  one  the  other 

In  cunning,  scheeming  stealth; 
•Tis  not  the  welfare  of  man  they  care, 

Whether  here  or  hereafter, 
'Tis  the  wealth  and  honor  they  now  share, 

Is  the  fruit  of  life  they  gather. 

This  is  not  the  promise  of  our  Lord, 

No  word  of  His  places  value, 
The  gold  of  earth  does  not  afford 

To  help  our  life  a-new. 
'Tis  the  fruit  of  organization 

In  anti-christ  deceiving, 
No  money  value  in  any  nation 

Can  help  us  truth  believing. 


132  FREELY  YE  HAVE  RECEIVED 


The  life  of  our  Lord  was  clean  of  mart, 

He  taught  the  people  freely 
To  remove  the  errors  from  the  heart, 

In  truth  of  being  was  lively. 
The  thought  of  wealth  and  honor  gain, 

Was  far  from  the  mind  of  Jesus, 
Such  evil  power  mankind  have  slain, 

In  false  ideas  vile  ego. 

The  plan  our  Father  the  power  He  gave 

To  save  from  false  ideas, 
Shall  deal  with  nations  mankind  to  save, 

Through  them  His  truth  to  seize; 
No  organization  shall  prevail, 

Nothing  that  is  offensive 
Shall  the  masses  of  mankind  avail, 

In  true  ideas  to  live. 

The  great  minds  in  the  nations  all 

Shall  bring  to  earth  the  blessings, 
Their  truthful  life  in  heavenly  call 

Shall  remove  the  evil  scheeming; 
The  nations  of  the  earth  shall  be 

In  wisdom  and  grace  divine, 
To  give  the  people  truth  to  see 

Their  path  through  life  to  shine. 

Beware  of  those  who  seek  for  gold, 

In  religious  organization, 
In  error's  ways  their  soul  have  sold, 

They  live  in  condemnation. 
The  Father  shall  all  such  remove, 

No  longer  trouble  nations, 
They  must  conform  to  laws  of  love, 

In  the  Father's  free  salvation.

The  heart  of  all  in  truth  renew. 

All  people  shall  awake  to  know 
The  Father's  light  and  truth  that  shine, 
The  mind  of  man  in  wisdom  grow — 
Conform  their  heart  in  life  divine. 
Affirm  the  truth  that  Jesus  taught, 
Our  Heavenly  Father  "so  loved  the  world," 
His  mind,  His  spirit  in  wisdom  fraught, 
The  flag  of  Peace  that's  now  unfurled. 

Those  who  insist  on  false  ideas 

To  be  the  truth  of  Jesus'  word 

Shall  be  ashamed,  their  thoughts  must  cease — 

No  longer  doubt  our  Saviour  Lord. 

To  picture  God  a  monstrous  fiiend, 

To  scare  the  people  in  them  believe 

Will  find  they  are  not  our  Father's  friend, 

His  truth  and  love  shall  not  receive,

134  SUM   AND   SUBSTANCE 


The  world  of  mankind  is  nearer  truth 

Than  all  the  false  ecclesias  are, 

The  blessings  of  heaven  are  theirs,  forsooth, 

The  Father's  life  and  love  to  share. 

The  mind  of  false  idealists  must  change — 

Conform  to  the  truth  that  Jesus  taught, 

Who  gave  to  us  in  truth  arrange, 

The  peace  of  heaven  in  life  he  brought. 

The  ones  who  believe  the  truth  of  God 
Shall  be  blessed  in  everlasting  life, 
'  Their  very  being  in  love's  abode — 
No  more  be  slaves  to  evil  strife. 
This  is  the  promise  that  Jesus  gave, 
The  words  of  truth  He  did  declare 
The  families  of  the  earth  shall  save 
In  harmony  of  life  His  truth  to  share. 

Before  we  can  claim  the  Father's  love 
We  must  repent  tfie  false  we  have, 
Jesus'  pure  thoughts  in  truth  above 
Shall  be  the  power  for  all  to  save. 
Traditions  in  false  ideas  of  life 
Benights  our  mind,  our  very  being — 
It  fills  us  with  vile  and  cruel  strife, 
Brings  cruel  death — the  grave  its  sting. 

Life  and  love  is  truth  of  heaven, 
Its  peace  and  joy  for  us  to  know — 
Are  the  promises  that  were  given 
In  grace  and  love  for  all  to  grow. 
Removing  false  ideas  of  life 
Shall  be  the  power  of  Jesus  word, 
Remove  the  curse  of  evil  strife, 
Restore  mankind  in  truth  accord.
